Hi all, finally getting round to gearbox and diff oil change, I have the drain bung on the gearbox which needs 16mm socket to undo. Apparently there is no crush washer or rubber seal. Same with the refill bung. Any idea on torque settings, I am thinking pretty tight as to avoid oil seeping out.
Any info much appreciated as always
