Where is the gear oil filling port on the Baojun 630?

Baojun 630's gear oil filling port is located at the bottom of the transmission, with two screws: the upper one is the filling port, and the lower one is the draining port. Below is more detailed information about gear oil: 1. Automotive gear oil is used in gear transmission mechanisms such as steering gears, transmissions, and drive axles. Due to the high surface pressure during gear transmission, gear oil plays a crucial role in lubrication, anti-wear, cooling, heat dissipation, anti-corrosion and rust prevention, cleaning, and reducing gear surface impact and noise. 2. Gear oil has excellent anti-wear and load-carrying properties, along with suitable viscosity. Additionally, it features good thermal oxidation stability, anti-foaming properties, water separation performance, and rust prevention capabilities.
As a veteran driver who has been driving a Baojun 630 for many years, I remember that changing gear oil is quite common. The drain hole is at the bottom of the transmission, which is a bolt-shaped screw hole, usually located under the engine near the chassis. You need to carefully unscrew it with a wrench to let the old oil flow out. As for the filling hole, it's usually on the side or top of the transmission, covered with a plug that needs to be unscrewed to add new oil. I've used 75W-90 gear oil, which is quite suitable. Remember to change the oil every 2 years or 40,000 kilometers—don't wait too long, otherwise, the transmission wear will increase noise. Last time I tried DIY, but the oil dripped everywhere, and I had to spend time cleaning it up, so I recommend going directly to a professional repair shop for hassle-free and safe service. Keeping the gear oil fresh helps extend the car's lifespan, making the drive much smoother and avoiding the hassle of major repairs.
