A A When was the last time you checked the level of the oil in your
ZF?
A A I check my engine oil regularly, and my coolant level. But I
have to
A A admit
A A that I don't check the level of the oil in my ZF, well, at all
between

A A I'm doing spring maintenance, as next weekend there is a
Supercar event
A A 4
A A hours away that I'll be attending, and in less than 2 months
there's a
A A week-long car tour before Le Mans Classic, a long ways from
home.
A A To be honest, I don't remember when I last changed the oil in
my
A A gearbox,
A A but I know it was not last year. Possibly not the previous year
either.
A A Let's just say it's been a while.
A A Anyway, I bought 3 liters of oil. I filled the gearbox with the
3
A A liters and
A A it hasn't yet begun to dribble out the hole, indicating that it
isn't

A A yet. Wondering how much would be left over in the oil drain

container only
A A took
A A about half - indicating that I've been driving around with 2,5
liters
A A in the
A A ZF for who-knows-how-long.
A A With all the horror stories about how expensive ZF repairs are,
this is
A A pretty silly on my part. Anyone else that hasn't checked their
oil
A A level and
A A is driving around fat, dumb, and happy while quietly doing
ungood
A A things to
A A their 'box?
A A Something to think about...
