You can dwell with an impact wrench for awhile to get that stupid plug out. All the gearbox oil will come out from that plug -- there might be some resident fluid in cavity behind the forward side plate depending on if the car is on a slope. If the rear is lower than the front, there is a possibility that all the fluid up front will eventually come to the drain, but then the fluid from the rear cover might not migrate out....I would do it on level ground, and collect the fluid. If the dipstick measured full before the drain, then you should have 3 liters collected. If you only get 2.5, then the rest is probably in the forward side cover -- the one forward of the dipstick side plate. Hope that makes sense.
