Hi all. My 2011 Octavia needed a gearbox oil change. Got the draining done no problem. When it came to filling though, the oil comes straight back out again. Any help or suggestions greatly appreciated. Am using the correct pump

Hi, welcome.

 

If it's not too late now - you don't say what gearbox you have (and I wouldn't know anyway about the boxes) but yours might relate to the following post below.

 

I'm all for changing the gearbox oil but don't know about pump for filling as I've only used gravity fill on my cars, the few times I've done (and on "lifetime fill" that really benefited being at two or three life times later).

 

You might have got a quicker answer, and better than mine, if you post in the relevant model section on here (see below the previous below).

Good luck.
