I suspect it was only added to the 2013MY FL2 as they were using more Evoque parts during the later days of FL2 production..

When you get the plug out, make sure the replacement is only torqued to 7Nm, which is the figure given in the workshop manual. 7Nm is nothing, literally just tight enough so it doesn't vibrate loose. ...

I can't help with this but I will say that there is something about this bolts that makes it seize solid. I've done a number of ATF changes on my car and each time i use a torque wrench to carefully t ...
