Default P38 2.5 DT fluid capacities - help!

Hi,

new to the forum, and new to Range Rovers (my usual weapon of choice is a high performance saloon, but at 49 I need something a little steadier...and easieer to get into!

SWMBO (She Who Must Be Obeyed) has just bought a 2000 'W' RR DHSE 2.5 with FSH, which is in mint condition;
I'm want to have the vehicle fully serviced inc all filters and fluids, but dont have a drivers manual with the relevant capacities in.

Can anyone please advise on capacities for;
engine
auto gearbox
transfer box
diffs

and how much I will need in total of each kind.

Spoke with a very well known supplier who were worse than useless, in that all they seemed interested in was supplying with outrageous amounts at outrageous prices (no names, no pack-drill!)

Any help and/or advice greatfully received!

Please take advantage of the free download of the "RAVE", the factory set of owner and shop manuals at link below. Inside you'll find capacities and suggested fluid types. Very popular oil is using a 15W40 diesel rated oil, like Shell Rotella, which does a great job keeping the insides clean. 30 weight is too light.

Thanks for that;
Im currently downloading it, and appreciate its a big file but its taking forevr (ok, 15-20 mins so far) to download.
How long should I expect the download to take (Im on a Acer Aspire 5742 laptop with 4GB DDR3 memory)?
