Yeah well it makes more sense about the 5 quarts and a totally dry empty gearbox. What are the odds that someone would need 5? Cause the manual says 3.7. I suppose if the transmission was brand new never used.

Yeah its the first time changing it so that gasket should atleast be able to be reused atleast once.


Atleast i have another extra engine oil drain bolt washer.
