Rover 2.5l auto - where is the gearbox refill plug?

peterd · 7th November 2006, 16:36

Have viewed club tecnical bulletin and removed air filter as required but still have difficulty in identifying the refill plug.
Is it forward wrt the battery, near the air filter assembly locating lugs or to the left of these (if facing the car) somewhere under the rubber pipes?

Found it under the pipes - it is a simple black, push-fit plug.

Well spotted, If they had made it yellow like that steaming great oil filler on top of the engine that you couldn't possibly miss even if it were black.

Life would be a little easier.

Hi Peter,

Sorry you got no reply

There aren't that many posts on here that yours should get lost but it did!

Glad you found it OK. Was it a big job for you?
