MY02 WRX. I would like to be able to top up my gearbox oil (it is quite near L). I need a funnel to access the dipstick hole. Must have a long spout to reach, but be wide enough to let the oil flow. Infrequent use so cheaper the better.

Any recommendations?

What volume of oil is required to go from the low to full marks on the dipstick?

 

I bought one from halfords !!!

 

Most pots of oil that you will buy, should come with a spout, like a long bit of pipe, you should be able to use this to get the oil in the filler.

nope - you need a long thin funnel to get round the I/C etc

 

scooby do is right-best to use a funnel and halfords do sell a black plastic one with a bendy tube/spout that fits into the filler just right.

easy

 

don't overfill it- it get hots and likes some space to expand (as recommeded by pete c.)

Hi, i used a bit of garden hose pipe and shaved the majority of the outer wall of so it would fit tight into the filler tube,
warm the new oil up cos its thinner and easier/quicker to pour, and whack your hose onto oil bottle spout thingy,, sorted, jobs a good un!.

4 inch funnel with some pipe pushed into the hole (5mm clear hose etc)
