He Ken. Thanks for your advice. I was under the impression from what I have read that all the transmission doesnt come out because the selector and somewhere else holds some. But the majority can be dropped then you refill about 4litres. At the moment shes fine but theres no fluid on the dipstick. Would it be better just to top it up?? Just as a stop gap until a garage can be sourced.. Thanks Vic

Hello all Newbie here, thank you for your welcome and im very sure I will feel at home here. I have a 1996 x300 3.2 automatic without the 'S' button, im not sure which gearbox but its very responsive and quick. Since I purchased her through a deal she was cheap (£900). Dad and I have fell in love with her but she hasn't any service history so I have changed the engine oil and filter, airfilter, spark plugs and replaced all the front end braking system plus rear shoes. The power steering has a slight weep but it doesnt warrant replacement parts yet as the loss is insignificant at the moment. The gearbox has been checked but its not showing any oil on the dipstick. I havepurchased the fluid for the change but thought it best to ask owners if there is anything I should know or any tips, tricks of the trade etc. Im not a mechanic but do have a good knowledge of this stuff but I dont know everything and I dont want to make a problem solving one. Thanks in advance, the reg it helps is N673UEC. Vic
