Strange issue I've git with my 5 speed box. Remove the diff drain bung and oil comes out, refit and remove the front filler but unable to fill anymore as oil is already level with bung. Tipped box over and drained a load more oil from the filler bung. Can remove the diff drain bung and fill up oil from the front bung till it comes out of the front bung but nothing comes out the drain. So at this point I have oil in the gear box but diff is dry, refit drain and fill via vss till oil comes out mounting hole. Autodata says it holds 1.45l which is what I managed to get in. Was planning to strip box and fit new input bearing but when box was out there was no play so didn't bother
