In need of more advice just changed all filters engine oil transfer oil and diff oil started to do the gear box went to undo the filler plug and it's round I've made the school boy error of draining the oil before loosening the filler which I can't do any advice would be greatly appreciated I have no access to a welder neither is there any other way of filling
 
Hi, My 04 yr manual model has a TX55 star type filler plug. What type is yours? If a normal or square head, can you get a bolt removal socket on (Erwin bolt remover etc)

May be a bit dodgy, but have you got any plastic metal, JB weld etc? you may be able to get some in there ,push the largest torx you can get in there and let is set. Fingers crossed you may be lucky.

Cheers
