@@londonboyrocks Not a problem 👊 I’ve not put any vids out recently, as i’ve injured my knee. When i’m good to go, my sister inlaw’s C3 is waiting for me to carry out a job on it 👍

Could you put 2.5 liters of oil? I think that is the maximum capacity I wonder 2 liters or 2.5 liters is the best result.And is it necessary to change the oil filter as well?

Hi how do you know when youve got right amount..emg if you were topping up. My cars done 46000 miles some leaked out from drive shaft sili im not sure how much i need ir shouodbi just charge the lot
Yes, i would drain the oil and replace it. The oil seals are not expensive, i think they are only £15 ish. A garage would probably charge up to 2hrs labour to fit a new seal. Then you know your new oil will stay in 👍
@@gilberesrepairs I am fairly competent d.i.y mechanic as I changed the control arms and shock myself. Is it not a case of it pushing into place and sliding over the lip edge on one side to create the seal? Or a specific tool is needed? Looks straightforward?
The oil seal just gets hooked out with a screwdriver and then the new one pressed in with a nylon mallet or with a big socket. Take a look at my C3 clutch video… ruclips.net/video/rDH2iX0yUgY/видео.html Driveshaft removal at 8mins 10secs You can see the oil seal above my grease can at 37mins 10secs Hope this helps 👍
@@gilberesrepairs thanks yes saw it. The drive shaft is it simple slot in to place and the rubber seal seals it. Or does it lock into place by pushing or tapping it...I.e circlip type It popped out without me even realising until I saw the oil piss out lol. So I was messing with it trying to get it to lock/engage in place? But as soon as I tried to lower car police was leaking out.
@@martinsiebert3853 That’s why you want thick oil 👍 I think there are a couple of bearings that can fail in the gearbox. I would recommend getting a good used gearbox or having your gearbox repaired by a specialist. If you put thick oil in the gearbox you can have difficulty getting it into gear. I’m sorry to say… i would replace or repair the gearbox! Sandy.
Hola, es aceite de engranajes 75w 80. Se utiliza en la caja de cambios manual. El aceite que usé se muestra a las 6:11 en el video. Gracias por el comentario y mira mis otros videos de Citroen C3. 👍
Thanks for the enquiry 👍 I don’t think this would be possible, because of the internal workings of the gearbox obstructing the extractor pump pipe. Don’t forget to checkout my C3 playlist 😜

Found it quite easy to remove air filter box to get to fill point
Just a jubilee clip and a pipe to unplug

Just done a drive shaft on sisters c3 and lost a bit, so will do a change on it. Thought is was going to be a pain but looks ok to do
Yes, it’s worth doing a full oil change! The main job is actually removing the battery 👍

Hi, fantastic how to tutorial. The fluid you are using… would that be the exact same oil for the Citroen Ds3 e-hdi 1.6 ?? Cheers
If it’s a manual gearbox then it’s the same. Glad the tutorial is of some help!

Hello thanks for the video!
There Is another way to fill up the oil in order to be sure to have the maximum level?
Hello, I’m unsure if there’s another way. This is the only way i know.
There maybe another method.

@@ÇağlarEfesoy-r6k I’m unsure of the oil capacity on an automatic gearbox. If it has a filter, i would definitely renew it 👍

Hello,
Has your car got a Manual gearbox or a Auto/Semi-auto gearbox?
@@gilberesrepairs sami auto. 2012(Citroen C3 Airdream Vtr+ E-Hdi S-A) please.

Maybe 🤔
@@gilberesrepairs thanks so so so much 💐
Great video, would this be similar to a c2? Thanks
Yes, i think it’s the same but i would check how much oil it takes. It maybe less if it’s a smaller gearbox 👍
Which year is the car ? Great video!
Thanks for the positive comment 👍
It’s a 2011 C3 with the 1.4 hdi engine.
Is it possible to top up the gearbox oil at engine compartment or somehow?
Hello, I'm unaware of any other method to fill the oil other than i showed in the video.👍
Hope this helps!

Cant you put a extractor pump through the breather and suck the gearbox oil out
