W56 Gearbox

Post by Ruger »

I drive a 2003 2.7 Hilux 4X2 Recently the oil seal between the box and the propshaft leaked. I had it repaired approximately 5000 km`s ago. What started now is a difficult gearshift on 2nd and 4th. I drained the box oil and found that it was SAE 90 instead of SAE 80 and the level was 500ml too low. I replaced the oil with SAE EPK 75-90. Could the low oil level and the incorrect grade of oil have caused damage?

Ek dink nie jy behoort enige skade op te getel het in daai afstand nie. As hy normaal gebruik is en die gearbox het nie hard gewerk nie (iets gesleep of in duk sand gery het) behoort jy fine te wees

Die ratkas voel nou gladder nadat ek `n paar kilo`s gery het en dit lyk darem nie of ek `n probleem het nie. Ek het die olie laat toets - laboratorium by die plek waar ek werk.
Dankie!
