Changed an F25's fluids today: transfer case (was black), front diff (was clear), gearbox (dark, some 'dust' on the magnets), left the rear diff as the front was so clear (and had some doubts to how to do it right). And the fuel filter was done. First time i saw a dealer-serviced car that actually had a fuel filter with a date on it later than first delivery...

Also changed the 'driver' of the rear led lights (the ones in the tailgate) as one side did not light up any more.


Also done the engine oil (what a construction that 2.0 diesel engine: air filter 'hat', oil filter in the back, oil filling with a spill catcher that leads to a hidden place under that 'hat'. While there is lots of room to work at the front (as 2 - 4 cylinders are missing).


What a pile of screws after removing all the plastic and metal covers!



Unfortunately ran out of time for the transfer case and gearbox reset. However, there were no issues before, it was all done at approx 150000km (not miles) for the first time.



Next week my E70 (2007) is up. Same list of stuff to do, this one at 180000km and 4 cylinders more. Curious to see the state of the various liquids as this one has more years and lots more torque than the F25.
