Changing gearbox filter

(1/1)

Merlin:
On my 1990 4 speed auto box does the sump drop down to change the filter OK.
I have heard that the crossmember has to be moved but this is not mentioned in the W/shop manuel. It says remove the bolts & drop the sump, straightforward it would seem.
Which is right ??

Range Rover Blues:
Surely you can tell be looking?  If the cross member has to come off, so does the exhaust.

Merlin:
Did the job today, No need to take the exhaust off or move it.  Loostened the crossmember, hammered it down & then swiveled it backwards (hammer job) & the g/box sump can be wangled out.
New filter/rubber seals/rubber sump gasket (glued that on with "Copydex"
& all back together.
About 5 hours allowing for coffee
Now for the rest of it's Spring Service before MOT in 3 weeks time.
Cogs :D  :D
