Ok so I brought a 2.8 l d hilux cheap (here in australia) but its got a crack around the oil filling plug hole on the gearbox some person over tightened it Im guessing and theres a slight crack and hence oil leak . Im really looking for a cheapish fix which preferably doesnt involve removing the gearbox .How to fix crack in a gearbox (oil filling plug is cracked)?
If it is right at the oil plug, use a rubber o-ring type gasket, or even a large flat teflon washer. If the crack is further than a gasket can seal, drain it, let it sit overnight to be sure it is drained, clean the area with a degreaser completely, then use what others have suggested, JB Weld, epoxy, that type thing. Just keep in mind, those sealers can't bond to an oily surface.How to fix crack in a gearbox (oil filling plug is cracked)?
