GEAR OIL LEVEL CHECK
Posted: Thu Jan 09, 2014 9:10 am
1998 R1100RT.
After some maintenance, I decided to just check the fluid level in the transmission & final drive.
Can't find a CHECK procedure anywhere. I know it takes .8 to .9 liters (.85) for a gear oil change.
But what about just verifying the level?
Should the trans oil be all the way up to the fill hole?
Can someone tell me from experience, after having actually changed the gear oil and adding the specified .85L,
how high is the final oil level relative to the fill hole????
