Have just bought a 740GL with 5 speed box, as it has 191,000 miles I would like to check the gearbox oil level at least and drain it at best. Unfortunately I cannot remove either plug, (In retrospect I'm glad I couldn't get the drain plug out or I would be stuck). Ive tried heat, rounded off the hexagons and tried Blue Point nut removers. Still no joy, anyone got any advice or do I have to pull the box.
Regards Bruin
