Troubleshooting
Sump plug is difficult to screw in
Ensure the threads on the sump pan are clean and free of debris. Attempt to start screwing the plug in by hand to check for cross-threading. If damage is suspected, the sump pan threads may need repair.
Oil leak from the sump plug after installation
Verify that a new aluminium washer was used and that it is the correct size (14mm ID x 22mm OD x 2mm thick). Check that the sump plug is tightened to the manufacturer's recommended torque specification. Ensure the sump pan surface where the plug seals is clean and free of damage.
Hex drive on sump plug is stripped
If the hex drive is damaged, you may need specialized tools to remove the plug, such as a bolt extractor socket. It is advisable to seek professional assistance if you are unable to remove it safely.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Compatibility: This sump plug and washer set (Part No. 31763) is specifically designed for Land Rover vehicles that require a sump plug with an M14 x 1.5mm thread size and a 19mm thread length, and a 15mm hex drive. Always verify your vehicle's specific requirements against the OEM part number LSF 1000040L.
Setup (Installation):
- Ensure the engine is cool before commencing work.
- Safely lift and support the vehicle to access the sump pan.
- Place a suitable drain pan underneath the sump plug.
- Using a 15mm wrench or socket, carefully loosen and remove the old sump plug.
- Drain the engine oil completely.
- Clean the threads on the sump pan.
- Screw in the new Connect Sump Plug (31763) with a new aluminium washer (14mm ID x 22mm OD x 2mm thick) by hand first to avoid cross-threading.
- Tighten the sump plug securely using the 15mm hex drive, but avoid over-tightening, which can damage the threads.
- Lower the vehicle and refill the engine with the correct grade and quantity of oil.
Care: The sump plug itself is generally durable. However, the aluminium washer is a crush washer designed to deform and create a seal. It is recommended to replace the aluminium washer with every oil change to ensure a reliable seal and prevent leaks. The part number for replacement washers is 36792 (10pc) or 31722 (50pc).
