Re: Gearbox Oil Change

Hmm, well there wasn't any grinding noise at all, though metal fillings did come out when I pulled the pin out.

Well that might explain it then with the reverse gear floating around free.

Unfortunately I am not in a good position to be undertaking serious maintenance on the Terbus. I literally ...

Re: Gearbox Oil Change

Bang on the money there xirdneh.

So I jumped back under the car today, pulled the pin out and it was as you described. Oil started to come out too which was filled with metal fillings.... not good. I had a fiddle around with the gear stick until the pin went back in with ease. All the gears ...

Re: Gearbox Oil Change

With the help of a friend, we might have figured out how I managed to bugger this up so badly.

So... if you look in the workshop manual, it says there are 3 filler plugs for the 4wd gearbox. 1 on the right-rear (transfer case), another on the left-middle and a 3rd at the front-left.

What I failed ...

Re: Gearbox Oil Change

Just went to try this and now I can't even get the gear lever to move at all. I'm unsure whether it is in a gear or not now. I could try pushing it.
The 4wd selector appears to work fine though.

Re: Gearbox Oil Change

Even with the car turned off I cannot get into gears. It's like something is jamming the movement. But 80w90 isn't that thick and the temperatures here at the moment are above 10 degrees Celcius

Gearbox Oil Change

So I just did a gearbox oil drain and fill on the 4wd wagon and now I can barely select gears.

I used 80-90W Oil as per the handbook
It took about 3.9 litres, filled until it started to come out then put the plug in.

What have I done wrong here?
It was a little bit hard to find reverse before his ...

Noise when pressing the clutch

Hi All,

So I've got a fairly high mileage 86 4wd wagon here and I am getting some fairly loud grinding sort of noises when i press the clutch all the way in. Sometimes it sounds like metal scrapping on metal (a higher pitch sound) but most of the time it is a grinding noise like a buggered bearing ...
