Hi, i recently serviced my Freelander myself.....not too difficult....but only if your confident/have tools/ramps etc...

From what i remember, the gearbox oil is different from the rear diff....i did have some problems sourcing the gear oil it but bought it on ebay/next day delivery....you can change the whole gearbox oil (time consuming refilling it tho) but i only topped up the rear diff...

Any how i am sure the gearbox oil only cost around £15.......diff oil was only £10 from a motor factors....

Lots of info on here for it all...

Cheers

tina read research and ask for help the boy's on here are willing to help if you want to learn,see if anyone in your area is doing ther gaylander service, get the gear and do both side by side. Nothing better than doing it yourself

If you can, get someone to help/ guide you. It's not that scary doing a service once you know where the bits are. You'll save yourself a fortune in the long run.

Post in the freelander section, you'll find loads of help as and when you need it.
