Kevberlin Posted August 17, 2020 Report Share Posted August 17, 2020 My 2000 Lupo 1.0 has 37k on the clock. There is no service history. I did the cambelt and engine oil a few months back. I keep thinking I ought to change the gearbox oil. The box seems fine albeit occasionally slightly notch. Should I make this oil change a priority? Thanks.

Skezza Posted August 17, 2020 Report Share Posted August 17, 2020 Change the oil. Change the selector seal. Have a think about whether to switch and use 80w90. I did on my SDI gearbox and believe it is the main reason that box is still in great working condition (albeit on another car) today.

Kevberlin Posted August 18, 2020 Author Report Share Posted August 18, 2020 Skezza. Thanks for that. I will get it sorted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mk2 Posted August 18, 2020 Report Share Posted August 18, 2020 Yeah i'll second that. check that the clutch is adjusted correctly, as the pedal boxes can fail and mess things up. There's a thread on it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevberlin Posted September 6, 2020 Author Report Share Posted September 6, 2020 Gearbox oil change resulted in significant improvement. All sorted thanks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
