2013 Subaru Impreza CVT Fill Plug

2013 Subaru Impreza CVT Fill Plug

Hello Impreza Community!

I'm having a wee issue and I'm seeking other mechanically inclined minds to help solve it. My boyfriend attempted to change my oil and emptied the CVT fluid (14mm bolt) instead, completely missing the oil pan (17mm bolt). He and I have been doing research and we found a few vids about how to refill the CVT. Feeling better already! However, The Internet is saying that the CVT fill hole is opened with an 8mm hex bit, and we've found a star bit plug that's located on the driver's side, opposite the exhaust pipe on the other side of the transmission. instead. See pic. Anyone else have this setup? Do you know what size star bit is needed? We've tried the advised 8mm hex bit, but it doesn't fit. We've tried a T50, which fits, but not snugly. It feels like the hole is tapered (wider at the opening than at the end).
