The only true way is to dump the oil and put in exactly 4.85L for your one, you can also measure what came out to see what was in there.As for noise from the trans (as long as its not coming from clutch) the following are possible causes:1, Improper type or incorrect level of trans fluid.2, Loose bolts or other attaching parts.3, Improper flywheel housing to engine crankshaft alignment.4, Noisy trans bearings.5, Noisy gears.If its from the clutch(engine running):1, CSC bearing failure.2, Clutch disc damaged.Hope some of this can help.

sam_rigger Member 246 Member For: 14y 1m 16d Posted 20/01/11 10:55 AM Share Posted 20/01/11 10:55 AM any of that 'clutch in. clutch out noise,' is rollover noise in the gearbox, its very common with the TR6060 gearbox. I wouldnt worry, they all do it.Better gear oil will improve the noise, such as Transmax Z or Mainlube 154, and so on.I have a 6sp man FG ute and its the same issues I've had. Trust me, I've asked EVERYONE from guys on here, to ford, to performance mechanics, and they all say the same thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sam_rigger Member 246 Member For: 14y 1m 16d Posted 20/01/11 11:25 PM Share Posted 20/01/11 11:25 PM No, not in the FG. FG is a 6spd TREMEC TR6060, not a 5spd T56. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
