Jawohl mein herr!
I once unthreaded a plug like that on a manual transmission car, heard a “thunk” noise when I took it out. Refilled the oil, tried to back out of the hoist, no reverse. Or 1st. poo poo. Raised car, realized the drain and “fill” were different (hex vs torx)

Turns out the clunk was a shift fork or something not being held in place anymore and falling in. Drove the car with no reverse and a few forward gears missing until I had time to pull the trans and get it reassembled.
