back diff top up plug

Forum: 

Hi All,

Need to check the oil in the back differential. Is the top up plug about a 23mm bolt head and visible from back of vehicle Unknw
I've tried to undo this but it's very tight and thought I'd check here before continuing that I'm doing the right thing as I'm scared of shearing it off

Many thanks

Doubtful you will shear it

Doubtful you will shear it off, but you may round it off so use a 6 point socket instead of a 12 point socket as 6 points work on the flats and not the corners of the plug.
