Right then guys ( and  gals ! )

i want to check my rear diff oil and gear box oil

the manual tells me to get it on axle stands to check

but if you put the back end on axle stands surely the car will slope downwards and not give me an accurate reading ??

is this true or has mazda thought of this and put something in so that you get a reasonable accurate reading when the car is on a slope

thanks

Put it on axle stands at the front too?

Alternatively, park the car in manchester - someone will do it for you ;)
