Post by: ajmoir36 on 08 March 2014, 17:58
Out of interest how many miles do you have? Just literally got home and it now reads 66,000.
Title: Re: 6 spd gearbox oil spec
Post by: Mattyj on 08 March 2014, 18:20
35,000 don't need to worry about now seems since to do it tho as i imagine most wear happens when its new neithier plug had a o-ring/washer on which i found odd so will frequently check for leaks the plugs were tapered at the top tho so maybe this counters for that
