does anyone know the exact location of the diff drain plug and refill point.
Mine is a zt-t 260 mk2, are there any special tools needed?

do a search- a few threads on the topic.
you will need 1.6 litres of the correct oil, available from dreadnought, a 30mm socket, and to make the job a lot easier ( read possible), an oil changing syringe ( about £8 from machine mart).
it makes it a bit easier if you can jack the rear up a bit, and warm the car up first ;)

Its a 15 minute job, if you are near lancs and can get to me you can use my socket and syringe

I stuggled to do mine and took it to the garage because I couldn't get the socket on to the bolt due to difficult access around it.

ok thanks, have done the job, and done the mod on the filler plug, was easier than anticipated, the oil had never been changed, it was thick and black.:)
