Gear box oil re-fill ???
Hi All, as above, what have you done to re-fill the box after an oil change, is there only one way ? i.e. through the dipstick neck, with some pipe and a funnel
Thanks,
Si.

That's exactly how I did mine Simon. Took car for a spin to warm up the box fluids. Up on a set of 4 axle stands so it's flat'ish. Dropped the old oil from the sump plug and the rear of the box. Put sump plug back in and refilled from the dipstick hole, checking regularly.
As yours is an auto, I'd have a check on the manuals to see where the plug is
Not as difficult a job as it sounds mate. If you need a hand, just let me know Si.
