putting another gearbox in my wrx how much gearbox oil do i need

thanks

 

4 litres i think

 

3.7 LITRES....

 

any more offers

 

It all depends on how it was drained.

If the box was in the car when drained then it will take 3.5 ltrs to bring it back up to the correct level as 1/2 ltr stays in the transfer casing.

If the box has been stripped & rebuilt & is completely empty it will take 4 ltrs.

4 litres of castrol syntrax. this is enough to slightly overfill it which is what you want to do - to protect 3rd. did mine the other day. the difference was immdediate. smother changes with no notches. £40 from halfords.

 

cheers guys

 

would just reiterate what dj say's

Use Castrol Syntrax 75w90 for your box or you could find that you have problems with your gear changes

 

Sorry to jump in guys i have a 1996 wrx import can you use the syntrax for the rear diff also?

 

yup, thats the correct oil

 

was thinking of using millers oil

 

no, use castrol syntrax, you wont be dissapointed. worth the money
