drop both sumps & dexron 3 atf, it is messy unless you want to pump or syphon it out through the filler hole, but the small sump doesnt give you that option so its a drop down & get messy, i got 2 washing up bowls from the pound shop to catch most of it, as for gaskets they are a vx only part but will have to be ordered or get them with a discount from jpat, i have an account number to get 50% off & they do same day posting, hope that helps,,,good luck :y

Yes, we have an agreement with JPAT for discount which is just being finalised.

The discount code will only be valid for orders via email - email them to sort out the order etc, then either phone or fax payment details.

Full details to follow once everything is in place, but if you want to blag now, email your requirements to them, and quote discount code VA06

Waiting for permission to publically posting their email address, but their website is http://www.jpat.co.uk and the email address starts sales@ ;)

There is a filter that can be changed also; while you are at it.

A good price if you are a member of Autobahnstormers.
