Gearbox Oil
New poster! (less than 10 posts)
Hi All,
I know there is a guide to draining and replacing the gearbox oil, but is there a way to fill the oil without taking the whole front of the car to pieces?
Can I not simply reach the cap to refill from the top of the engine bay?
Thanks

Long piece of hose and a funnel from the top

As Kris said mate. I found a meter of old hose pipe fit my funnel perfectly

Excellent news! I thought having to remove the bumper, intercooler etc was a bit OTT.
Any tips on where the refill cap can be found...anyone point me towards a diagram or picture which illustrates it? (I know I am asking to be spoon fed now)

think it should be white but it does look more yellow after 20 years.

Some are metal (like a large bolt)
