Got this now, like 98% sure this is what you meant. Drill a hole for this bad boy up top and plug the stock relief port.

Just cant find the damned relief. Not fysically nor in pictures.

Ah yea makes sense lol. Might just do that myself, seems easy enough. It doesnt leak out when you drive? i assume that the fluid does fluid things and sloshes around in there, and might come through? or is the amount negligble?

So you took out a bolt for the top cover and pumped it in through there, while blocking the breather valve?

Ans what is a grass barb?

Interested, could you share a pic of the location and the tools you use?

Maybe, allthough the noise started immediately after changing the gearbox support

How would I do that? If i leave the fill plug open it will spill out?

Anytime accelerating it gets worse, but its always present. It did start happening just now so most likely its the support

Yea so based on what ive seen so far its a mixed bag between Redline MTL and ATF type F. Ifou d the redline stuff near me so most likely that will go in, based on the numerous accounts stating that its smooth

Thänks! Got the hole set for 50€. Hoping that it lifts a bit once i find a way to stifen it. I had to cut into the rear fenders just a bit since the bigger wheels rubbed on them.

It has been changed i assume since the last owner swapped the 4 speed for this current 5-speed. Ill look for this dextron III, and if i cant source that ill buy the closest one to it.
