So I drained the transfer box today and it looks like the garage that changed all the oils for me just over 12 months ago have put ATF in there rather than EP90. :emps1:
It came out as thin as you'd expect and was a very dark brown/rusty red in colour.
Obviously this is a lot thinner and completely the wrong oil, so is there likely to be any long term damage or might I have got away with it?
It's done just over 5k miles since it had that last oil change.
I'm thinking change the oil again in 100 miles or so so it's all completely flushed out etc.
