Changing V-drive oil?
I'm having a hard time getting the oil out. How is everyone else doing it? I'm trying to pump it out through the dip stick opening, same way i did the tranny, and not getting any out.
Its the V-drive on an '07 LSV.
Thanks for any thoughts...Lake Tahoe slaysh / Shred Stixx flo team

i'm using a hand pump extractor. I ran the motor for 5-10 minutes, drained the engine then tried draining the v-drive. couldn't get any to come out, just air.

You need a tube that is smaller than the one you used through the engine oil dipstick. You have to work it to the bottom of the V-drive. It is SAE 30 weight oil and it's gonna take a while to get it out. Snaking the thin line to the bottom is a little tricky. Try to use a hose about the same size as the V-drive dipstick.
