The clocks have gone forward (do hope you remembered to reset yours) and it's time to get the S7 ready for the summer. Mini service to start thing off, change the oil and filter.
So it's the front up in the air and on the ramps first off.
The old oil drained out, a bit black!!!!!!!! Thanks for the use of the washing up bowl mum! Looks like I will have to get you a new one!!
The right lubricants for the job in hand.
Now its time to put the rear end up on the ramps to check the oil level in the diff.
The diff oil level is checked by the plug in the side. The oil level should be up to the bottom edge of the hole. So it just a case of top up as necessary and refit the plug.
