Transmission Oil change

Unread post by Overknasten »

Hi all.
Just got my Fulvia back from the paint shop after a long winter at the body shop - all rust is done now and its time to hit the road. Question is:
I want to change the transmission oil and I am in doubt what oil to use?
As I recall there is two plugs, and the one underneath that I use for draining?
I also remember something about a plug in the side to inspect after refilling or am I completely off?
I looked everywhere in my Fulvia files / documents but cannot find anything on this service job.
Do anyone have a step by step explanation I can follow?
I wish you all a wonderful summer.

There is a plastic dip stick on the top.

I use Millers CRX75W90 Synth with Nano Technology.

There are two drain plugs at the bottom. One near the rear of the gearbox and one under the differential. Drain both as there is a small wall between differential part and gearbox part.

In that wall is an oil pump.

Filling is through one hole at the top (the dip stick hole).

Thanks a lot.
I guess all talk about synthetic oils are over then?
So the oil flows from gearbox to differential and I fill until top level of dipstick?

Unfortunately the Millers CRX75W90 Synth with Nano Technology, is nowhere to be found in Denmark, any alternatives?

Great, I´ll contact him. Casper at Millers oil shouldn´t be that hard to find.
