Good evening all

Can anyone please help with finding the size of Allen key required for the sump plug. I was trying to change oil myself but the biggest size Allen Key i had (10mm) was smaller for the plug.

Thank you in advance

Not sure what you're asking.

The imperial equivalent to 12mm is 15/32" if that's what you're asking.

I'm not entirely convinced that the OP understands the difference between metric and imperial. But no modern cars use imperial-sized fasteners. Not even in the U.S.
