I decided to fit my spare front subframe so I can drop the car on the lift and make it easier to remove the rear struts and subframe. However, when I offered it up to the car I could see it was out of true and I couldn’t get the bolt holes to line up. This subframe had come off the crash damaged Avant I bought last year and I did think it was a little mangled.
So. Onto plan B. There is more than one way to skin a cat.
Plan B worked.
And this is a bonus. A powerflex rear bush.

The drain plug is looking sorry for itself.
Someone has been at it with a chisel in an attempt to remove it.
This is after a clean up.
I did try to remove in the conventional way but it wasn’t budging.
So, my tried and trusty welder comes out.
And out.
Threads are all good for a new plug.
I don’t think the oil has been changed for a while.

Possibly not.
It must have been topped up at some point as it’s been leaking for a long time and there was more than a litre in it.
Anyway, gave it a good scrub.

The oil is 75w/90 fully synthetic gl4 and has the vw 501 50 approval.
You must use a GL4 oil in the gearbox otherwise the sulphur attacks the brass synchros.
Rear diff you can use a GL5. I use EP90 Morris gear oil in the diff as I have a 25ltr drum of it here for the tractorNothelle S2 Avant
