Re: Oil capacity and grades

I know that,it's just that I looked at the copy of the workshop manual and bought three litres which should leave a drop over. If I go by the chart I need to buy another litre and I can think of better things I can waste €12 on😉 And looking at the workshop manual the drain and fill plugs have differ...

Re: Oil capacity and grades

The forum is showing two different values for differential fluid capacities. The reproduction of the workshop manual shows front 1.5 litres rear 1.3
The listing for fuel,oils,fluid capacity and grades shows front 2.0 rear 1.5. Which is the correct amount?

Mines a 413 built 1993 I'll check to see if there's a paint code in the paperwork. Doubt they used more than one.

Front Roof Rubber Seal/Seals

Stupidly while away working I bought online the windscreen to roof rubber seal. I'd thought that it was part of multiple seals for the front roof section but on getting home it appears to be one (or maybe two). Does anyone have the part number and an EU source?

Re: For the Amateur

It's an SJ413 just passed its yearly revision with just an advisory on one of the rear brakes being 15 percent less efficient than the other. So approx times on shoe changes, clutch etc would be handy.

Re: For the Amateur

It's hard to put a timescale on jobs you never know what else you might uncover imo. Seized parts that need good old wd40 to get them moving rounded off bolts etc. I'm no mechanic but if your willing to get your hands mucky there's plenty of help on this forum as well as good old YouTube for videos...

For the Amateur

Other than with advice from the forum, anything more than oil ,filter and fluid changes are above my pay grade. So can find myself at the mercy of local workshops.
Is there a list anywhere of the approximate labour times for things like a clutch change,brake pads etc?
