Servicing the D4 ... shopping list

Trying to get the necessaries together for this years servce.

Got the C1 oil at a good price from what used to be a site sponsor, I think, which has been the awkward item in the past.

Not looking to go anywhere to get the bits due to COVID, so t'internet is my friend/enemy this year.

I can get oil filter cheap at a site sponsor, and the sump plug too. But when postage is added, it's no longer cheap. In fact, the 2 items together can't be checked out as it's under £10 !

Halfords want double the price for the MANN filter ... Bosch one will save ~£5

Sump plug ... I've always done "new" but can it be reused ? if not, what's it's spec and I'll look on eBay.

Might do diff oil change ... car is 10 years old next week but not done 70K yet. any recommendations for buying it in a 2 litre container ? has to be cheaper than 2 x 1 litres, surely ?

Air filter ... probably won't bother as car has done less than 3K miles since last service.

Same for cabin filter.

all advice appreciated.








except DSL saying "STRIP", of course.

£11 for a MANN oil filter on ECP... using their latest code, Bosch is the about same price (very slightly less).... is it not just the washer you need to change on the sump plug ?

not finding any 2 litre diff oils so 1l x 2 it is.

Any reason to not take the figures from Advance factors as gospel ?

Front Diff Oil 0.6 Litres ADV902
Rear Standard Diff Oil 1.1 Litres ADV902


75w90 according to several sites but my handbook just says "SAF XO" .... will look it up.

found it
Quote:
CASTROL SAF-XO GEAR OIL 1LTR GL5 SYNTRAX 75W-90 FINAL DRIVE OIL (ROCKET OIL)


so any fully synthetic 75w90 GL5 then ?

The amounts listed are correct.

Any 75W-90 GL-5 will work. I used Comma gear oil (product code SX5L for 5 liters) which is semi-synthetic.

If you’re changing the transfer box fluid, Ravenol TF-870 is your friend and also priced economically.

Looks like I pressed "buy now" on the wrong gear oil ... 75w80 has just been delivered.

Pinged off an email to see if seller will exchange ( it's an eBay shop and an approved Mannol distributor ), but if they won't can I use it ?

I wouldn’t use it in the differentials but isn’t the D3 manual gearbox using that oil?

It'll be cheaper to buy the right stuff than buy a D3 to use this, won't it? Laughing

I was thinking perhaps you can offload it to someone on the forum, if unopened, if you can’t return it.
