Your video was spot on and to the point. I make the mistake every time of hitting the forums and no one has a clue. You were a big help to me👍

Fantastic video demo. Our MH often won’t go into gear. It cost us £4,000 last time and it still does it. We think it needs the gear oil changed. Hopefully it will solve the problem.

Thanks for this, I am looking for details on how to change the gearbox oil on my 2002 Peugeot Compass Avantgarde 200. I was told that the gearbox is sealed for life, but the oil is now 20 years old and I want to replace it. I just hope that your information also applies to my model. I will get out and get under when the weather improves!

your a star mate, just about to do the top mount bearings and noticed that some people have the drive shaft pull out when they do this and gear box oil can leak out. Was going to get the oil just in case this happens to me ! Your video is golden, thanks loads !

Brilliant!!! First time I've watched a tutorial that showed everything that's needed . Thank you. I've noticed there's a squicky sound on my fiat ducato motorhome 2000 when driving up the hill. We had issues about the gear sealant , it's been leaking ever so slowly but I can't find anywhere to replace it so I'm stuck with this sealant. I brought the oil but haven't got all that tool, might need to start working my way to fill the gear. You also said that I need the exact, how can I when I don't know the amount that was drained and I don't want to get rid of the oil inside already. Thanks

lydern, just drain it all out, then refill with 2.6lts of the correct gear oil. the odd couple of ml will not harm your gearbox, its better than guessing and with 2.6 lts it will be in spec, hope that helps, david.

@davidbosworth.33952 жыл бұрын
Just take your time, collect the old oil and measure it, then you will know if it was low, I checked the amount against what came out, then filled with correct level. Remember if your gearbox leaks it may have less than required amount.

good video .personaly i wouldent go by wat comes out goes in .ive seen these leak over time so its not exactly accurate .could be less in it that should be .i have a 2016 relay in at the moment that has been slightly leaking gearbox oil( which customer noticed.upon inspection sump plug was damp). so probably best to read ur owners manual to see quantity of oil .oil came out was slightly over 2 litres so was low on oil ....
@davidbosworth.33953 жыл бұрын
Hi Paul, I agree, but I did search Google beforehand, and I found that most people used the extra oil because the fifth gear was not getting properly lubricated. If I remember it was only 0.2lts, my vehicle did not have any leaks and was only low milage, I agree with you though that what comes out may not necessarily be the correct amount. My vehicle did have the manual listed amount when drained, but after consulting the many postings on the web I thought I would add the extra 0.2lts. thanks for your interest and glad you liked the video

Welcome Steve, at my age I'm very surprised I can film anything, I forget sometimes to turn phone, usually after I have made the video, I'm pleased you find them interesting, there are other videos out there for a more professional rebuild, mine are very amateur like my rebuilds.

Easier way to fill if you can get underneath it fully on a pit etc is to take the speedo drive out

Ryan, thanks for your input. This video is for the average man who only has basic tools, therefore shows the easiest way to do the job on the driveway. I'm quite sure a garage with a pit would do the job, but that would come with a bill plus vat. This video is for the DIY mechanic wanting to save money.
