What's gonna be the best gearbox oil for my UK manual - with 160k miles on the clock, the old stuff has been in there a long time by the look of it??

Cheers guys

Try some NEO, you can find it at SPL parts.

Thanks guys will have a look around now that I have some ideas...

The best quote I could get for Royal Purple was £153 + £15 delivery!

This was for 5 litres of racing 41 engine oil and 6 litres of max gear oil.

 

Ended up going to my local and got 5 litres of Silkolene Pro S 10w/40 for £28, 4 litres of Millers fully synth 75/90 for £32 and 2 litres of Millers motorsport lsd 75/90 for £16

total = £76!

 

I know that Royal Purple has been proved to increase power etc but im pretty sure I'll get a power increase with any new oil over the current 15 year old stuff!

Oh god yes!!! Anything better than 15 year old "brewed in your transmission for a fuller flavour!" is bound to have a possitive effect!!! Dare you to take one good long wiff of it when you drain it out though!!! :hurl:

Yeah, don't think mine has ever been done (not my fault I've only had it 3 months).

 

Was dirty, smelly and the magnet in the drain plug was a bit furry with metal :eek: :eek:

I didnt both ordering the royal purple in the end. Ive got too many other things to spend the £3 on my zed so just got some decent oil as the guys kind of hinted above. Maybe when (IF) i ever get everything else sorted on my zed then il invest in some!
