err..dont really know,due to a spine injury I am unable to be "rolling" about underneath to check it out,I will try and find out someway..
The last box I had "serviced" cost about £50 ,and that was about 12months ago it aint cheap but cheaper than a replacement box believe me,the Rangie cost £750....the Dodge was £800, dont like paying that sort of money out very often... :D
