Check gear oil level – Skoda Octavia Mk2  Note
t  The gearbox oil level can only be checked by draining → Chapter the gear oil fully and then topping up → Chapter again.
t  To drain off the gear oil a bearing pin for the gearshift forks in the gearbox must be removed. The gearshift shaft must be locked in such a way that the position of the gearshift forks is not changed e.g. through unintentional operation of the gearshift mechanism.
   
Checking the gear oil in accordance with the previously known method is no longer possible.
