Hi James, thanks for watching. Unfortunately that's the way it goes sometimes, ours was already stripped from a previous owner, who had found it now seals better with no gasket, but we'll be looking at a thread repair (possibly Heli-coil) as a longer term solution
Greetings from Pontassieve, province of Florence, Italy. I have a Suzuki Jimmy 4x4 with a 1.3 LT m13a petrol engine from 2001, all original, which I use to travel through fields, forests and mountains on agricultural and forestry roads used by logging companies.
Greetings from Pontassieve, province of Florence, Italy. In my 2001 Suzuki Jimmy 4x4 I used Liqui Moly Mos2 Leitchlauf 10w40 as engine oil and then I added Liqui Moly Ceratec as an anti-friction agent.
the most important specc for the trans case oil is it has to be GL-4 gearoil, because these cases have brass elements in it, GL-5 will work but will eat the syncro that is in there
Hi mate, the way we find our part numbers for the Jimny (as well as all our other cars) is using Partsouq.com. You can enter your Jimny Vehicle Identification Number (VIN), which is a 17-digit code unique to each car, and then see exploded diagrams for every part of your specific car. You can for example search for transmission, and find all of the Suzuki part numbers related to that, including plugs and gaskets
Hi, thanks for watching. We found a copy of the Suzuki Factory Service Manual (FSM) online, which contains maintenance details including torque specifications
Hi, thanks for watching. I'm not sure where this comment comes from, but the figures shown are correct as per the factory service manual (FSM). It makes sense that the filler plug would have a higher torque specification here, as the filler plus is a straight thread with a gasket, whereas the drain plug is a tapered thread
Thank you!!!🙏. I could hardly find useful information on the jimny
Thanks for watching Tyrone!
Followed you guys exacty. Right down to cooking the drain plug on the gearbox sump. Next change will be fun.

Cracking video lads, really enjoying the series to keep me motivated as I do a complete restoration on the Mrs’s 2002 Jimny. Nice one fellas 👍🏻🏴
Thanks Matt! We really appreciate it. Hope restoring your Jimny is going well

Thanks for watching mate. Yes, we did use GL-4 in the transfer case as specified
Thank you very much for the information.
Now I want to know:
Is your Suzuki petrol or diesel?
and automatic or manual transmission?
Do you guys happen to know what the Suzuki part number is for the manual transmission filler plug bolt and gasket if it has one?

@@2ndGearLow thanks for this response man! Cheers!
It could be better to change the automatic transmission filter too?
Where did you find all the torgue specs?

When the torque wrench clicks, that’s the sign to stop turning. Not another quarter turn 😂

Thank you for the feedback
think you guys got it wrong. the rear df fill plug can't have a higher torque than the drain plug!
