Following on previous post about type 9 oil for gearbox, the oil has arrived. Before I set to doing the job and struggling underneath, does anyone know the size of bolt or Allen key required. Just to make sure I have that size before I start job
Thanks
Steve

You'll need a 10mm Allen key wrench

And a length of pipe to use as an extension, it will be tight

Great thanks. Was considering making a hole in side tunnel to gain access then cover over after. Not sure if feasible tho.

That's what I've done, the biggest problem is finding a large grommet
