You need to undo the R/H engine mount, and jack the engine/gearbox up pretty much as far as it will go, and wiggle the sump out. It does come out, just!
You will also need some way of re-filling the gearbox, obviously My D3 Build Thread

Just to confirm, it's quite common on autos from around 80k onwards. Often must noticeable with medium acceleration especially when under load or going up hill.
Basically the transmission oil needs replacing and a mega flush is the best way to do it. Double flush is a temp fix for 15k miles or so. D3 HSE MY05 Auto
