Yay! Changed my own Tranny/Rear diff oil

I'm pretty proud of myself, first time I've done Tranny and diff oil on my own. The rear diff was a pain in the *** compared to the tranny (the only 1/2" socket wrench I have is a 16" breaker bar, underneath the car with that it was almost impossible!).

So this is my celebration thread, 2 things I will never need to go to the shop for again!!! :banana: :banana: :banana:

hehe, I'm already accustom to the smell from when my dad used to own an air-cooled VW shop when I was little. Didn't smell quite as bad as I remembered, but I guess thats a good thing!

You could probably look in the manual that subaru gives you with the car...

Yeah, I looked on scooby mods, the manual doesn't say isht about changing tranny/diff oil, hell it didn't even list the fluid quantities of gear oil needed.
