How to change the Jimmy' s gear box oil

Did I miss that bit Jim? :blush:
Apologies if I did...should have gone to Specsavers :whistle:

That's alright Gus lol I'm deaf in one ear and people get sick of having to repeat themselves.

Cheers for the write up, must change the oil in my 08 VVT, guy I bought it off last year said he just had the gearbox bearing changed and new clutch fitted but an oil change now would do no harm, even if it has only been 3k miles.

Hi Weecorey,

That's good that the previous owner has already done that work, you can help prevent wear by regular changes. Since joining Bigjimny I have done most of the servicing myself apart from an old Peugeot 205 GTI I had little experience maintaining & servicing a vehicle. Now It has saved me a lot of money and I know its done properly, after having bad experiences at main dealer garages.

I have noticed Bigjimny now states VVT M13A engine have 1.3 litres capacity and 75W 80 GL-4 gear box oil.

Little tip, place the new oil containers in a hot bucket of water prior to filling, speed things up no end.
