Hi to you all, I'm a new member looking for help to resolve what seems to be a relatively common issue with the B6 5 speed box..... I've recently bought an A4 avant with the 012/01W box which suffers from stiffness when cold. Having already checked out the advice previously posted on the forum, I've decided to renew the gearbox oil. I've a couple of questions about doing this -
Would I be better off using an additive in the first instance?
I've located the oil filler/level plug but how do I drain off existing oil?
Am I right in thinking Sae 75w 90 is the grade to go for? Should it be hypoid & what GL rating? Can anyone recommend a brand & distributor?
Ta for now.
