 2014 ST 998 torx / Allen question
I know it's been asked I've search but can't find it. What are the size torx or Allen wrenches to remove my idol tank plug and my transmission drain plugs for doing an oil change. I think one is a 6 mm the other I'm un sure of??? Thanks much when I do the service I'm going to replace with gold plugs. Thanks much

The 998 RT's take a 5 and 6 mm Allen wrench. I can't say for sure about the ST's, but I would suspect that they would be the same, a 5 and 6 mm Allen.

I didn't notice the 998 reference. You're right.

I still have the plugs from our '11 RT & '13 ST. They are all (4) 6mm Allen.

Transmission is a 6mm Allen The oil is a T45 Torx They both tend to strip if your not careful.

My experience as well. Oil (left) Torx, transmission is a 6mm Allen. Since I do about one a week, I’m pretty sure😃

Your header says "1330cc oil plugs". He was asking about a 998.

Yes it's a 998 engine I thought the two plugs were different one was Allen the other torx?. I also plan on putting gold plugs back in. Just trying to make sure I have the correct tools in my travel kit, I'm not at home and plan on doing it this weekend. Thanks much for all your help.

The '11 RT and the '13 ST are 998's therefore NOT an T45 !!
Just to be clear the OP was asking about a '14 ST which is a 998.
The T45 Torx is used on the 1330 engines.
I think the OP has the correct info now, both are 6mm Allen.
