Large enough to carry the volume of drain required????? Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/65071-turbo-oil-drain/#findComment-970559 Share on other sites More sharing options...
PHANTMXR6 It's not a MKI!

Or was that price including removal and refit?Looks like an alternative option to the standard item anyway.What is the standard item worth?
