We check the oil level in the gearbox during vehicle maintenance, as well as before each trip in case of oil leakage from the gearbox.
We check the oil level in the gearbox with the engine not running on the car.
The sequence of work to check the oil level in the gearbox.
1. We prepare the car for repair work (see points 1 and 2 "Preparing the car for maintenance and repair").
2. Remove the oil level indicator from the hole in the gearbox housing.
3. We wipe the pointer rod from oil and put it back in place until it stops, and then remove it.
The oil level in the gearbox must be between the marks «MIN» and «MAX», printed on the pointer rod, otherwise the oil level in the gearbox is brought to normal.
4. Install the oil level indicator in the gearbox.
