    Default 1 or 2 oil drain plugs

    I have the owners manual out, only mentioned one drain plug, watched several videos, some very painful. But I was under the impression there were 2 drain plugs for the motor. Or does the transmission use motor oil?

    There are two. One for the engine and one for the transmission. They both use the same oil. I pull the engine plug first as that has the most oil in it than the trans side.

    If you look at the BRP parts lists for the 1330 ACE engines look for the Fiche for the Clutch Cover as that's where the "transmission plug" is found. There are two item numbers, one for the Magnetic Drain Plug M12 X 1.5, PN 420241782, and the second for the Copper Washer, PN 420250640. The engine and transmission share the lubrication oil.

    otherwise be a vulgar brawl.

    There are 2 drain plugs for the SE models (semi auto transmission). If you have a manual clutch. I believe there is only 1. Correct me if I'm wrong.

    All Spyders, both manual and automatic have 2 drain plugs. The manual does not have a transmission hydraulic control module filter.

    Be aware that even though they may look like the same size, they need different sockets/plugs
