I think the Torx on top for the fill plug is a T50. (really big).
The hex for the drain / level tube is 10mm. (really big).
There are lots of things to skin your knuckles on when you break the fill plug loose, it's really tight and was installed dry, so it takes a lot to crack it loose, then you smash your hands into something. I have lost some skin twice from this job, once I was wearing work gloves and everything.
A flex-head breaker bar will make your life much easier.
The manual says every 60k on the fluid, if I had one I'd do it every 30k, or every 15k if I drove it like my housemate drives his Aero combi.
Usually takes right about exactly 3.5 litres of fluid, give or take.
Welcome to the dark side. Servicing the V6 is hell.
