2014 Defender 110 Puma 2.2 XS CSW Havana

Swivel grease

Hi,
this is regarding a 300tdi. the swivels aren't losing any grease but they had a re-build and a grease sachet added about 2 years and 15k miles ago.

any idea how you check whether we need to add any more?

thanks BM52

2007 Defender 110 Puma 2.4 SW Chawton White

Witha stick at the same sort of angle on each side. If level is similar then, ok (sort of half level). If they got emulsionated with H2O then I guess you need to change the lub. Puma 110" SW

You have to put full lock on in both directions to check either side (full locking each time in opposite directions)

I used a wooden kebab stick at an angle, they should be around half full.
