I was given the new metal sump today and noticed that it does not have a drain plug , so ive gone back to the plastic one as in the future I will want to just drop and drain

There are different metal ones on the market, the Bearmach one we sell doesn't have a drain, I appreciate this is awkward but is actually quite common even on new cars with a flush being the recommended route.

The genuine ZF metal pan we have does have a drain plug but that is about mid height in the pan so would leave at least a litre in unless it was jacked up at one end, of course you still have oil left in the torque converter so a flush is still the best route in my opinion. Paul Redding

If I can persuade Mike from Dundee to invest in another machine you may have one a bit closer to you in due course!

Eh? What's happened to Mike's machine dialyses machine? He came and did my flush recently - top bloke, top job, rock bottom price

Yes Mike did invest in a machine, that post was in 2013, from the amount of oil he buys I guess he is doing lots of flushes in Scotland now.  Paul Redding
