Transmission oil (Opel Omega B)

Warm up the engine before draining the oil. The oil will drain much faster and there will be a greater chance that debris and sediment will drain along with the oil.

Oil drain

1. Raise and support the front of the vehicle.

2. Thoroughly clean the area around the filler plug. Unscrew the plug and remove the sealing washer.



3. Place a suitable container under the drain hole and unscrew the drain hole plug.

4. Drain the oil completely. Clean the drain and filler plugs.

Filling

1. Install new gaskets on the plugs and tighten them to the specified torque. Lower the vehicle to the ground.

2. Fill with the correct grade of transmission oil and check the oil level.

3. Drive a short distance and check the oil level again.

Examination

1. Place the vehicle on the inspection pit.

2. If the engine has just been running, turn it off and wait 5 minutes.

3. Thoroughly clean the area around the filler plug. Unscrew the plug.

4. Insert a wire bent at a right angle into the hole. The oil level should be 9 mm below the edge of the filler hole.

5. Add oil if necessary.
