Lightning, I’m aware you have ordered a good pump to refill the gearbox, which if cleaned correctly is also good for filling the transfer box and diffs with their spec oils.

However if anyone else wants to know of a cheap and accurate method to fill the gearbox, then a 1.2 metre length of 12mm Outside diameter clear plastic pipe does the job nicely. Just feed it from the engine bay , under the body and into the fill hole of the gearbox ensuring you hang it so it’s supported with no dips. Stick a funnel in the engine bay end and pore the correct measured amount of oil into the funnel. About £5 -10 in total. I purchased a 1.5m length and use the 300mm cutoff length with funnel for filling the transfer and diffs.

By clang I mean, I suppose, thud. Make sure the pedal is fully down.
