If I remember you need to fill the gearbox through the dipstick hole, located near the intercooler

Sounds intresting! lol

Managed to get the rear diff plug out, it was in very tight, i had to use a 2 foot bar and 2 foot of scafolding slid onto that, and i needed my dad to help loosen it!!! madness!!!

How do i drain and refill the front diff?

From what i have researched, the gearbox takes 4 litres, the rear diff takes 0.8 litres and the front diff takes 1.2 litres.
I cant seem to find another drain plug for the front diff, so im guessing the fluid is mixed in with the gearbox fluid, which would mean putting 5.2 litres of fluid into the gearbox---- am i right in thinking that???
