.
Do not install the oil level pipe from another gearbox! The oil level pipe determines the oil level in the gearbox.
Fitting a different oil level pipe can result in the oil level in the gearbox being too high or too low.

Who makes these pages, and how
TorqFix was built by a mechanic — after a 2,700 km drive with five roadside repairs that no diagnostic tool could explain.
The figures on this page come from manufacturer workshop documentation and are shown as they are. The page is assembled automatically from that data — it is not written by an AI. The AI works in the chat, where it answers for your specific car. It writes nothing here.
Variants of the same model differ. Cross-check torque against the factory manual for your engine before final tightening.
