Has anyone found a good article on how to replace the oil? Where to drain from and how to check the level on refilling would be good.
Cheers
Andy

What oil are you using?
If you are using redline, where did you get it?
And yes I would like to know how to do it as well....
Thank you,

there is a drain plug( 24mm socket ) on the passenger side of the gearbox/diff almost directly below the passenger side drive shaft.
the fill plug is at the front of the gearbox about 3 inches up from the bottom, i think it was 17 or 19 mm socket. I suggest you go to the local vet and get a 60 or 100 ml or bigger syringe for about 3 to 4 dollars, commonly used on horses. Is excellant for filling the gearbox.
you fill the gearbox while car is level, ( normally done on a hoist ) till it starts to come back out the fill hole.

Any pics would be nice if you have any.
Otherwise, I guess I just need to get down there and look!
So is UAS the only place I can get these oils?
And any one know the prices?
And we need 2.3 ltrs?
Thank you for your help guys!
