Dnk Posted January 11, 2014 Share Posted January 11, 2014 Just fill it back up with your new oil and don't worry about it I hope you loosened the filler plug first, some can be a real bitch to move Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOGIE Posted January 11, 2014 Author Share Posted January 11, 2014 Yep open filler first so air could pass through so it would drain easier. New new gasket rings to go on as well as Motul diff oil. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOGIE Posted January 11, 2014 Author Share Posted January 11, 2014 Does it matter what type of grease I use to grease up the driveshaft flanges? I try to avoid using copper grease anywhere near the ABS sensors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulj1 Posted January 11, 2014 Share Posted January 11, 2014 I had chunks and filings in mine mate and carried on been abused for nearly 5 years before I changed it. It never did break good old Japanese build quality:p Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It never did break good old Japanese build quality:p No chunks in mine thankfully just filings. The oil wasnt bad as I thought either still had a golden colour. Must have been looked after Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
