im having my clutch replaced this week in my 04 sti.
does anyone know if the oil is replaced when clutch is changed?
i.e. leaks out when driveshafts are removed etc.

you will get some leaking out when the driveshafts are removed and the prop is pulled out.if the holes are bunged then it should just need a top up when the gearbox is replaced.
