You can get 20ltrs of the oil for about £120, original filter and gasket less than £50 and it would take you less than 2 hours lying on your back...

I was considering doing it myself but the only thing that put me of was how do you measure the oil temperature when topping off the fluid to the correct level ? As I said in a previous post I have a infra red laser thermometer but that would only measure the temp of the plastic pan and not the actual oil.

The sleeve is a very cheap, serviceable part, and if they are dropping the sump anyway, it only takes an extra 60 seconds to replace |

It's different oil between the 5speed and 6 speed gearboxes. £23 a litre is still very expensive though |
