Default Gearbox oil WRX 01

Have you checked your gearbox oil level lately ?

I was bored and noticed the dipstick whilst polishing my dump valve.

Anyway.......it wasnt even on the bottom of the stick.

Where does it go, I havent got a leak.

I made a funnel and pipe from a bottle neck and piece of garden hose, which was a perfect size for the filler pipe...I was quite proud of my self.

And I scavenged an 'Oasis bottle' full of oil, from my friendly dealer.

500mls brought the level back to the FULL mark.

PS. For a change my local dealer didnt turn me away like a rabid leper for owning an import and gave me the oil for free, well done Holdscroft..

PPS. The special, super duper filler I made is now on E-Bay.........
