think you just take the plug out and top it up until the plug hole level. its not making noises is it? I will have a look at my book later if you like? Got your email mate but work pc wont let on there :(

There's a big allen key plug on the cover, top right I think as you look in from the back. I'd bash it a few times with a hammer first, then bash the allen key into it aswell, only try undoing it if your really confident you've got a tight fit, they have a nasty habit of rounding out:eek: Oh yeah, it'll prolly be really tight, but when it goes, it goes... like really goes!!

With the car on a level surface, with the plug out, oil should just to say drip out, if it doesn't, just top it up till it does, easy!!:D:D

Exactly as above, but you will find it's an absolute bastid to undo. When mine finally went, I smacked myself in the chin with the force I was putting in.

Round the allan bolt, and you're fcuked.

thats all those donuts m8 :D don't worry too much it should be ok, may be just low on oil like you said. Hope you get it sorted ok :)

Move it forward and see how big the patch is on the floor, just like with the engine but the other way round.
