cha Posted June 2, 2019 Share Posted June 2, 2019 Subaru legacy 1997 needs oil in gearbox, according to the two dipsticks. But I can't find where to fill it, or top it up. Manual useless ! Thanks if you can help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeneralDisorder Posted June 2, 2019 Share Posted June 2, 2019 You fill both from the dipstick tubes. GD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cha Posted June 2, 2019 Author Share Posted June 2, 2019 Oh - really ? It did cross my mind, but they are in such awkward places, I thought it couldn't be !! Still - thanks for the info. Much appreciated. CHA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1 Lucky Texan Posted June 2, 2019 Share Posted June 2, 2019 I use a funnel with a hose. Check levels in the trans while idling, after running thru all the gears. The marks on the auto's stick are only a few ounces apart - not a liter/qt like engine stick so, sneak up on FULL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
