Yes 1.6 litres should do it, as always fill till seeping out to confirm its full as the filler is also the level like most diffs & gearboxes.

Funnily enough I changed mine yesterday, so the gentle fragrance of sulphur is still fresh on my fingers vomit

I love the smell of hypoid in the morning wink

What oil are you using in your BTR Peter?

I've just gone heavier switching from Millers CRX LS 75w90 NT fully synthetic, to the same oil in 75w140.



Next time I may even try the even heavier Penrite Limslip 85W/140.



Look out for the tight as fek drain bolt on the BTR if its your first change.

I had to weld a nut on mine to free the begger mad
