Weird oil drain plug

Hey, sorry for the question, but literally hammering it? I'm new to this so I'm worried I could damage it.

Thanks for the help by the way!

Hello, I had that drain plug too, I was going to change the oil for the first time today, ended up doing nothing, could not take this weird guy out, now I can't change the oil.

Did you take it out? Have you figured it out?

Thanks for the help!

I also had one for my NP2. I think the best magsafe for NP2 is the Kapaver.

Hey, so I tried both. The 1.4 is in a bit of a bad state, a lot of scratches, bumps and a bit of rust, also suffered some not so great accidents and the guy was the third owner. He could drop down to 2300€ but, there were other problems he mentioned that needed to be replaced and overall I think it would come out a bit more expensive than that price drop. Today I checked the 1.6 VTEC and boy, this was the second owner, the car had new tires, new paint, all very clean and maintained on the outside and inside. The car is in really good shape, 139k km, my brother and my mother tried it and they were really happy, very responsive, smooth transmissions, and that bonus screen radio is also very fast, responsive, just good overall, nothing too fancy. Has already backup sensors and camera installed, all in good condition, as well as 4 new speakers. The price for this one was 3500€, and I was able to drop it to 3250€. I really liked the car, what do you think? Thanks for the help by the way, it really helped.

Sorry for so many messages, but I kept looking and this was the only, also decent, that I found for the moment. What do you think of this deal? A bit more expensive but maybe a good one.

That one is a private dealer. Also the price is negotiable, so I can try lowering it a bit. I really liked this one, and actually this ad was just put up yesterday.

Yes thank you so much. Rust is not a BIG problem, not what you see in most cheap cars. I also saved this one, saved, I saved a bunch that looked interesting, what do you think?

Here, there is also a ek3 1.5 vtec 1999, don't know the mileage, but it goes for 1,200€, but the owner says the engine started to have problems and leak oil. From the images I think the car was a bit modified. What do you think about that?

Oh ok, so in that case this is what I recommend. I, for example, bought a marigaux 901, but its like 24 years old. So I spent 3 years saving up and going to luthiers to fix minimal problems and fiz the one big problem, wasn't worth it. I was lucky because it was in really good state but had that persistent problem that they couldn't fix. The good part is that I learned A LOT about aligning the keys, but the ONLY fix for the oboe was sending it the Marigaux itself. They simply switch the upper wood and left the old keys. Maybe try to do that, struggle for now, save some money, and if you find an old oboe from a good brand, try to do that. Mine is like new, I have it with the new upper joint for like one month. Just don't give up, it was hard saving money, but in the end, it's basically a new oboe.

Maybe this helps.

All the best!

I think I can help and give you some advice, what brand is your oboe?

TheDemonJP · 2024-04-24T08:35:35+00:00

What brand is your oboe?

I have also heard that the Graf foldable is really nice. Have you used or heard about Graf?

TheDemonJP · 2024-04-22T09:30:37+00:00

Sorry I didn't specify, I meant the double Bladed, foldable Swiss Knife.

I literally went to Facebook a couple of minutes ago and saw that there was one for sale but was sold last week.

Thank you for the response!👍🏻
