Hi all

Got a long list of jobs to do on my GT 3.2 when I get home (currently away with work) including oil cooler replace (autolusso kit) clutch slave replace, Spark plugs replace and throttle body clean (slight lumpyness), engine bay tidy up, LPG system service, ARB strongflex bushes all round and match the rear drop links with the front by fitting Meyle HD links.

Anyway whilst she is in the air for a couple of days thought I would do gearbox oil too as I have no evidence of it being changed (car is on 121k). Is there an oil filter in the gearbox that needs changing too? I haven't seen anyone change one yet in what I have read.

Thanks all
Dom

Just changed my gearbox oil and it's made a big difference to the shift. I used Motul Gear 300 75/90.

I'm hoping for the same it's been a bit 'stiff' recently getting into gear until engine is warm

No filter. just some magnets inside them to catch the worst of it.

I posted some pics of a teardown of a gearbox I undertook a few years ago if you're interested. Pics aren't great but it can be found here;
