Title: G/Box and Diff oil change....
Post by: Big G on February 12, 2007, 12:41:45

My Defender is about ready for another service and was just wondering if I should change the Diff/Box oils instead of just topping up where necessary.

I have had the vehicle for 18 months and it has got 80,000 miles on the clock.

Thanks for your addvice chaps.... :)

When were they last changed? If you don't know then do it, you will have a reference point for future changes then.
