The following then applies: If the same oil which already is in the gearbox is used when topping up, there is no limit on how much oil can be filled or how many times the oil level can be topped up in the gearbox. If a different approved oil other than the one in the gearbox is used, then no more than one litre in total may be added. This is regardless of how many times the oil level is topped up. If more oil needs to be added, carry out a complete oil change instead.
