I changed the gearbox oil on my car,awx engine 130bhp. It took 2.5ltr of castrol taf-x 75/90 grade. There is a drain plug underneath the gearbox which is a splined m16 plug,the filler plug is a hex 17mm which is located on the left hand side of the g/box [looking from the rear to front]. -
Hi to all my fellow superb owners, I went into my local ASDA and spotted mobil oil in the car section. They had Mobil ESP 5/30 504/507 spec 5 ltr, yes 5ltr not 4ltr like halfrauds for £32.00,what a cracking price, I would have bought 10 ltrs but i got some motul from opie oils when they had a promotion,shame.

Hi i went from Rotterdam to Vienna in15 hours, average speed 80/90mph except when i had a big bm/merc up my bottom so took it up to 100/120mph for short bursts.it did well on fuel ,got 51.5mpg on shell ultra,not bad for a loaded car with 2 adults+2teenagers.only stopping on those excellent German lay-bys for food and to splash the floor. i got my cam belt +w/pump done at 56,000 at volkservice (indie) of Blackpool for 300.00 which i could live with after getting spooked by the VAG stealers 4 year rubbish and for piece of mind for the long trip. My car is a superb classic 1.9 tdi 130bhp on a 03 plate .The car never missed a beat in the 4 thousand mile/3 week holiday, it only used 1/4 litre of oil.I changed the oil+filter just before the trip with 507.00spec shell helix 5/30 just for piece of mind [again].Enjoy your trip.
