Changing gear oil in W58
Does anyone know or have a few basic steps on how to change the gear oil in a w58??
I had some leak out as I was doing my swap and was wondering if I can go ahead and change it out with some fresh. Thanks |

if you want to it would not hurt..
and if a considerable amount came out in your swap than i would. its easy man, i would take a picture or somthin for you but you CANT MISS IT! and need to be on my way to work soon... drain plug is right on the bottem of the transmission, big freakin bolt that holds all the fluid in. the fill plug is close, cant remember what side of the tranny its on but you will see it...

In the car. The fill plug is on the driver's side, middle of transmission, half way up. Can't miss it. I have a hand pump to pump gear lube from the container into the transmission. Just pump until the fluid trickles out, and your done.
