Hello mate,

The gearbox filler is the same tube that the dip stick uses. Its the one between the turbo and top mounted intercooler. The drain plug is the one on the underside of the gearbox. Just in case you dont know, the front diff is inside the gearbox too.

Give Alyn a call at AS Performance - Rally Motorsport Specialists as he can help supply the correct oil. I used the same oil for the gearbox and rear diff, but this depends on the type of diff fitted. Alyn will tell you more.

Wayne.

2 plugs on the rear facing section of the diff. Lower on is drain, upper one is fill.

Easy really, but use the RIGHT oil.
