I topped up my diffs today on my 300tdi. I checked for a 1/2 inch hole/plug on my transfer box but could only find what looked like 17mm bolt head at the bottom and half way up the n/s of the case,
can anyone advise me as to what oil I need to put in it and where the level plug is, i have searched the net without any success,
also I have not been able to select low range it seems very stiff, is there a cpmmon fault or something to lubricate?
Thanks all
 
On the 300Tdi manual the top up plug is on the rear to the left of the handbrake drum looking forward.
I got mine off using the 1/2 square drive of a breaker bar, also worked on both axles.
