Title: Auto box filter change
Post by dxt on Jun 25^th, 2010, 3:36pm

Hi ... I'm sure that somewhere on the site is a fairly comprehensive guide on changing this filter. I think it included pictures and advice on how to get the max amount of old fluid out. I'm sure it was from one of our friends in Norway or sweden.
Cheers

I think the best way to change the oil is by removing the sump and change the filter, refit sump, fill with new oil and take off the bottem pipe to the cooler. Run the engine untill app 2 ltrs of oil has come out, put in 2 and run the engine, keep doing this untill clean oil comes out. fill to correct level after a run, when hot.
