What oil do i put in the gearbox tbox and the dif's?????
 
thanks for putting me in the right direction just 1 question how often should i change the gearbox/tbox and diff not big off roader but will be pulling caravan at least twice a month hope some1 can help.

will tell you in that section of the manual , under intervals
 
As many times as you can offord :augie

I think gearbox n diffs might be as high as 80000 miles :nenau

But i'm doing mine once a year due to off roading :thumbs
 
Just to add, the manual states 3.5ltrs for the manual gearbox this is correct for the earlier box with the filler/level plug on the left-hand side, but the later box with the filler level plug on the right-hand side holds a tad over 5ltrs. A year 2000 t2 should be the latter.

Gearbox and tbox and diffs I use EP 80/90 and COMMA LS80W-90 LIMITED SLIP GEAR OIL in the rear if you have the LSD rear diff
 
dont all have lsd on rear but normal diff on the front might be wrong if wrong how can u tell if it has lsd on rear

Get both rear wheels off the ground and spin one of them..........If they both go round the same way then you have LSD.If one goes the opposite way then you don't.There will probably be a sticker on the rear diff telling you if it has LSD.
 
thanks for the help what brand of oil is the best to put in the gbox tbox and lsd thanks just want to get it changed as just got the terrano :augie:D

A lot of motor factors down here sell the COMMA brand in the red plastic cans so I use that most of the time.
