Thanks so much for the video. You covered every detail. Terrific. I've now subscribed.

[@Thediycarchannel]

No worries sc glad you liked it. Thank you for the sub I really appreciate it

[@Boathorse]

Great video, clear and helpful instruction. Just one point to make, the six speed gearbox on the FWD Mk7 transit requires filling up to 21mm below the fill plug. Haynes recommend making a dipstick from a piece of bent wire to check the level in the box. Better to do what you did here, drain the box, measure out the oil and pump it into the fill hole, you know it's right then and the van does not need to be on the level. Cheers

[@Thediycarchannel]

No worries at all. I can't remember what the manual recommended now I have forgotten

No worries thanks for watching

Will the level not be wrong as the front was off the ground at the front(not level)? Handy otherwise, thanks for sharing...💚🇬🇧🌱

[@Thediycarchannel]

Not really sure it would make that much difference it's a very slight angle. It didn't cause any issues

Is the refill plug the same on a 2.4 ltr rear wheel drive trsmsit

[@Thediycarchannel]

I have no idea sorry never worked on one

[@E3CB]

My Transit's gearbox top plug is stuck. Is is allowed to use breaker bar or should I heat the plug with torch? Thanks. Have a great weekend!

[@Thediycarchannel]

That's a hard one because you don't want it breaking off be a Knightmare if it does Mine was really tight I used a breaker bar but would want to say yes incase it breaks

[@jordlc3480]

Does the van need to be level I did mine on the weekend and it took 3lt but online some are saying 2.2 and now I’m paranoid it’s over full

[@Thediycarchannel]

I can't see it taking that much more if its up Mine was up a little and it's been fine so far

[@steven0882]
