Just in case anyone else confused (like daniel
) ill spell it out
It comes in 4 litre bottles, we will assume the fto box will take a full 6 litres if flushed completely.
This means that me and someone else will need to purchase a 4 litre bottle each, then split an additional 4 litre bottle between us to get the required 6 litres.
They are 76 bucks each - i get 114 from 76+38 (1 and a half bottles of fluid)
I am not charging anything to do the change
Just incase people think so
This is also specific dexron 3 fully synth oil from castrol, so good sh*t
Be a good opportunity to do any other services on the car as well if you would usually take it to a mechanic. Very simple to do yourself, we can show you how and will cost 1/2 the price
Im tempted to buy a half dozen fuel filters and do them on the day as how many people have done them lately?
theyre like 20 bucks to change if that

Yay indeed
I am sooo excited to meet other FTO owners. This whole car 'enthusiast' thing is new to me and I think I'm boring everyone to death with how much I talk about my car

I don't know about that! Before buying the FTO
(which I'd never heard of until about Nov last year - I was going to get a Supra) I hadn't done anything either decorative or mechanical to a car before. I just keep saying to myself "f**k it, just go for it"
The fact that I seem to be able to get replacement parts from Taz in case I stuff it up helps with the confidence
Edited to add ... this forum has been
THE most invaluable source of information. If it wasn't for everyone here I don't think my experience so far would have been even half as good.
