SpoonalTap Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 Ok silly question but I've searched google for the answer and it's not made me 100% on the answer and don't want to knacker my gearbox so just wanting confirmation. Do I fill this hole with gearbox oil until it dribbles out? I think there is a proper fill hole further up but I also think you can just fill it from this one as well?

Calum122 Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 (edited) You fill from the top and wait for it to leak out that hole. And the drainage is at the bottom. The one covered in oil in bottom right hand corner of this image. Make sure the car is level on the ground before commencing the refill. The Hex bolt ontop of that cylinder in the bottom right hand corner of this image. Next to the sensor plug. Edited August 17, 2018 by Calum122 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SpoonalTap Posted August 17, 2018 Author Share Posted August 17, 2018 Thanks for the quick reply, I've had the driveshafts out so shouldn't be any gearbox in it and I've read about the car being level so that's done. So is this where I fill it from then? I did read about the allen key bolt but I didn't see it till I had another look. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Calum122 Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 No not that one. Other side of that plug. It's hex bolt not an allen key. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SpoonalTap Posted August 17, 2018 Author Share Posted August 17, 2018 You're a gent mate, decided to drain the rest of the gearbox out the now as well. I see the hex bolt, I didn't see your edit until now. That's perfect, I'll get it done and that's one more thing to do off the list. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
