Checking oil level in gearbox

Notes:

  • ◆ When checking the oil level in the gearbox, the vehicle should be standing on a perfectly horizontal surface. An inspection pit or a 4-post lifting platform is ideal.
  • ◆ The prescribed oil level is to be adhered to exactly; the gearbox reacts very sensitively to over-filling.
