Carlyle Double Ended Drain Plug Key 8-10mm (CDPK810M)

Description

Genuine Carlyle · Part no. CDPK810M

The CDPK810M from Carlyle is a dual-size square drain plug key, 8mm at one end and 10mm at the other, with a 1/2in square drive so it fits a standard 1/2in ratchet or breaker bar. Its listed uses include Citroën, Peugeot and Renault models and some Volvos, on square-socket sump and gearbox plugs.

Good to know

• Can I use a breaker bar on it? Yes, the 1/2in square drive takes a ratchet or breaker bar, which helps on plugs that have been overtightened; keep the key square in the plug as you pull.
• Does it fit every Volvo? No, only some Volvo models use these square plugs, so check that the 8mm or 10mm end sits fully in your plug before you start.
• Any tips for a clean oil change? Let a hot engine cool to warm, wear gloves, have a tray big enough for the full sump, and fit a new sealing washer on the plug.

Which one?

For 10mm and 12mm Ford and Lancia plugs, choose the CDPK1012M; for a wider mix of sizes see the Carlyle 6 Piece Drain Key Set Double End (CUDPKS).
