Cheers mate, but I've done it now and (fingers crossed) hopefully it
won't go again for a while at least and the one I've ordered should be
here by then. That's all four UJ's done in the last 18 months, so if
they only last 1/4 that time (111000 miles) I'll be happy enough. ;)

LOL, I so nearly did that as well. Let us all know how you get on with
it, guinea pig stylee. ;)

Paul and Mark Hi,
They also sell an nice looking kit for making oil change a simple, clean and
easy task.
I have NOT used it myself but a good friend here in Greece has fitted it and
he now changes the engine oil on a regular basis himself.
It is one of the things that I plan on buying quite soon, so now with the
discussion for Difflock it was a good opportunity to say something about it.
Take care
Pantelis

Yeah, the difflock drain plug.
Its a tad on the expensive side mind...
Ive got quite good at estimating where the oil will reach and moving the
container along the floor as it slows :)

Hi Pantelis,
I use one of the Difflock sump plugs - not cheap but well worth the
money. It makes changing the oil a breeze .. no more guessing how far
the howling gale blowing under the car will push the oil away from the
container :-)

no problem you just need a collector that fits inside your overall sleeve
cos when it goes titsup thats were the oil seems to migrate to. :-)

Steve thanks for the input.
There are so many things that we buy without having a true reason for doing
so.
I guess spending a few pounds on making the oil change easier and therefore
more frequent is worth it.
Take care
