    200tdi Transmission oil leak

    Hi I Hve Just Done Mine, The 30mm Nut Is Really Tight,the Best Way To Do It Is Put A Pair Of Big Pipe Grips On The Prop Flange, And Undo The Nut With Grips Pulling Against The The Box Section,it Leaves A Few Small Lines But No Problems,a Quick Rub With A File Leaves It Fine.reverse To Put Back.
