Hello All,
I have the Universal 5432 with what I am assuming is a Hurth transmission in my E38. I don't have a manual for the transmission which leaves me with some questions:
1) How high should the oil level be on the dipstick? There is a line on the stick but it is at the very bottom end of the stick and I can't imagine thats the full mark..... Right now the oil level is about 1/4 of the distance up the stick. I changed the oil today, removed 20 oz's, sucking it right out to the bottom of the unit and put 20 oz's back in.
2) Is there a way to tell what ratio the transmission is? I would like to reprop in the near future and need to know.
3) I am assuming the trans is a Hurth. Looks to be original. Is there any way it could be anything else?
Thanks, RT
