well i got a service kit and some penrite fluid going to tackle it today anyone got and helpfull hints or suggestions, will i hurt anything with a air ratchet or should it all be done by hand are the sump bolts done up to a certain tourqe or are they just bt
Don't forget to have a 'Torx' bit, size T27, on hand to remove the filter assembly inside. Also, you may well have to remove the LHside gearbox mounting bracket off the casing to gain access to the LH rear corner auto sump bolt. It is held on with 4 x 19mm ring spanner size bolts. You will also have to remove the 2 x 15mm nuts under the gearbox mounts to lift the trans enough to slide the sump forward and downwards. There is no need to remove the crossmember with the Diesel autos, and it adds a certain amount of difficulty to the job by doing so.Quote:

Enjoy, and have a change of clothes handy if you are lying under it:p

In the engine room, against the firewall to the right of the fuel filter, to the left of the engine.Quote:
