I am looking to change the axle oil in my 1992 Plus 8. I have recently bought the vehicle and there is no record of when this was last performed - hence time to change it.
As a novice in this field I want to pose a few questions before embarking on it.
1. The axle is fitted with a limited slip differential, hence I was going to go with Mobil One 75w-90 synthetic gear lubricant LS. Thoughts?
2. What volume of oil is required?
3. The drain plug appears to be oily. Is there a sealing washer on the nut or would you recommend the use of a thread sealant?
4. Can you confirm where the fill nut is? Is this it?
