Attention! After unscrewing the oil level measuring plug, a new seal must be installed on it.
1. Raise the vehicle on a stationary lift or place it horizontally over an inspection pit. Measure the oil level at least 5 minutes after turning off the engine. If you check the oil level immediately after turning off the engine, the result will be incorrect, since some of the oil remains distributed on the gearbox components.
2. Remove the left front wheel, unscrew the screws and brackets under the fenders to access the filler/oil level plug.
3. Wipe the area around the plug, which can be identified as the bolt with the largest head on the transmission end cover.
4. Use a wrench to loosen the transmission oil fill/level plug.
5. Unscrew the plug and remove the seal from it.
6. The oil level should be at the bottom of the filler hole.
7. If the gearbox overflows when adding oil, check that the vehicle is positioned strictly horizontally and allow the excess oil to drain into an appropriate container.
8. When the gearbox oil level is normal, install a new seal on the plug and tighten the plug to the correct torque. Wipe the gearbox clean of oil traces. Install the protective arch and wheel.
9. The need to frequently top up the gearbox oil indicates an oil leak that must be eliminated.
