to save me taking mine out and losing oil
does anyone know the correct thread size of the ZF outbox filler plug please ?
Im looking to make an extension tube for filling the autobox as its a pain in the rear to do on your own
and I like to change to regularly
thanks in advance

Get an automotive syringe off of amazon
much easier.

how are you going to know the level is correct, the earlier sump and dip stick tube is a direct swap

good question James,I know my 300 tdi Auto was allways hit and miss checking with the dipstick
Ive done the TD5 a few times now and I can never get out more than 4.5 L so I always put 4.5L back in
as I have access to free oil I alway change it when i change the engine oil
its just a pain to do on your own
so Im looking to make an extension filler tube which I can leave in place .which can be attached to a container with 4.5 l of oil it and i can let if fill on gravity while change gear inside the car

I believe it's an M16x1.5 thread.
I've got the dipstick and tube but need a good M16x1.5 adapter fitting to fit it on my Disco 2.
