Default Any concerns with over filling 6 speed DCCD box?
I've overfilled it slightly, prob 1/2 ltr, just wonder if need to drain or not worry.

Don't worry.
Your gearbox can breathe through the small hose on top of the box, where the dog bone connects. Expanding oil will not give any extra pressure inside the box.

Excellent, dont really want to put her back on the ramps again and go through trying to pull out a limited amount of oil.

I sort of think there used to be a Swiss Tony in the Buckinghamshire area.
