ATF in an R380 isn't a good idea. It isn't recommended by LR anymore and hasn't been for a fairly long timeQuote:

Done, ok in neutral with cdl unlocked and one wheel in air spins in gear no spin cdl locked neutral or not no spin cos one wheel is on the ground? That right? Cdl locked or unlocked both wheels in air in gear both wheels spin but drive shaft to box doesnt spin tho? Should it? My head hurts
Sorry bout all the question but does anybody know what type of spanner i need to open filler plug? Looks star like? Cheers
The gearbox fill plug is a T55 Torx.
And make sure you can undo the filler plug before draining the oil or you could be left in all sorts of trouble.
Dont worry i learnt that lessom once before with my old sigma...ended up filling it through the shifter haha drain plug is the 17ish size bolt i assume? And are transfer box plugs just the 1/2" square bolts? Can i use the same oil?
If you were driving one a sealed road with the CDL locked and doing a tight turn you will get noise and juddering as you are forcing 50/50 drive through the front and rear diffs and winding up the axles. There will be no compensation through the centre diff for the different ark the wheels take.Quote:
