I drive a manual. So there's no dipstick? How do you check the level? I'm not very knowledgeble with manual trannys. Every one of our other cars is an auto.

[right][snapback]325273[/snapback][/right] if you really want to check your oil level you have to remove the fill bolt. can't really say where it located. but if you can't see any leaks around your gearbox you sould be fine. don't wurry bout it . or ask to refill your gearbox nxtime you have a maintnance (sorry for my langue but normaly i speak duch ) This post has been edited by speedyrider: Aug 17, 2005 - 5:10 PM -------------------- |

jack up the car and look for the big fill and drain bolts. undo the higher bolt (fill) and stick your finger in the hole. if your figer comes out dry, then you are low on oil. if its wet. its fine.
