Transmission Filter Torx

Hello
Looking to replace the transmission filter on my 1984 300D. Anybody know what size Torx to use to drain the Pan.

Thanks As Usual

It is not a Torx bit. It is a regular allen (hex) bit. Pretty sure it is 5mm, but may be 6mm.

Make sure that you throughly clean out the hex hole and the driver makes a deep and positive contact. These plugs strip out very easily and there is a gasket or crush washer under the plugs that should be replaced.
