Hi guys can anyone tell me the amount of engine oil to put in my 1972 Renault 4 s FASA . This is the 852 cc Sierra motor and the car was built in Spain . Also how much and what kind of oil goes in the gearbox .
Thanks
 
Hi .
Can anyone advise on gearbox oil change please . I tried on you tube but without any look . Does the bash plate need to be removed and which bolts/screws/plugs should be used .
Thanks in anticipation .
 
If you have the 354 gearbox, there's just one drain plug to undo. It's much better if you use a spanner like this (you'll ruin the plug otherwise):

The refill plug (same size) is on the side of the box. I find it easiest to refill the box from underneath (after removing the undertray), squeezing the oil in from one of those containers with a flexible spout. When the oil runs out of the hole on the side, the box is full.

This may help:

It shows how to fill the gearbox from above.
