Yup, get the fluid changed every 60,000 kms .
More often if towing.

Yup - and it's a bastard of a job with no plug and no filler tube... I might be looking at retro-fitting a filler tube from an older model.... and having a plug brazed in when I take the sump off.... got a new filter kit and nulon in the garage for yonks now ready to go - yesterday was two new front lower BJs (ball joints but you get the idea) in the Terr'Uh'Tree - and that killed my fractured back, so not for a while.

I KNOW the fluid is a bit murky so it needs changing..... and Nulon added is great - years of experience.

One of those bolts was so tight I used a 7ft crowbar on a spanner to loosen it... got the air tools and all - no dice...

Yes, I have used Nulon for my auto and engine for a while now.
Seems very good.

For the auto servicing, I removed the return hose to the auto sump started the motor and it pumped fluid out.
Then I topped it up, replaced every measured removed litre for a new litre in the fill tube.

Did not remove the sump or filter.
It is an old 5 speed with a dipstick :-)
