winchman:
Just replaced the discs and pads on my 300TDi.
As I had to undo the top king pin bolts to remove the caliper ( fantastic bit of design) the oil started to leak out of the swivel housing.
I know its EP90, and how to put it in but how much do I put in?

floyd fan:
Undo the square plug at the top, thats where you put it in. Undo the smaller plug about 2" further down, when the oil comes out of the lower hole its full.

winchman:
Thanks didnt see the level plug  :oops:

Range Rover Blues:
As a tip, I always put a spare trolley jack under the bottom of the swivel housing (knuckle) to keep the oil seal incontact.

winchman:
Good idea, managed to do the other side with out undoing the king pin bolts.
Did find a bit of play but cant decide if its king pin or bearings
