Before reading: All numbers etc are in metric
system.
So after 50000km I decided to change the TS oil. I went and bought
1L of Castrol TWS 10W60 oil and made my own suction device.
Hans@ESS told me the TS needs 120ml of 10W60 and the correct oil
level should be around 10mm below the center shaft. So, I carefully
measured exactly 120ml oil and placed them in a container.
Removed the 6mm allen oil plug from the TS and started to suck the
old oil which was very dark compared with the fresh.
Now here's the problem. I only got 45ml out of the S/C. There's
nothing else in there. The tube goes around 17cm in the TS, which
according to it's specs, it's the bottom.
Castrol 10W60 Oil
Syringe with plastic tube
Container and 6mm Allen key
Engine:
Oil fill plug for the TS
Connect tube with syringe
Insert tube all the way down and start sucking
old oil
Guess which is the old oil
