  1. Hi Hope I'm not too late, but the MT90 is not suitable for the diff. You need a GL5 oil, so the Red Line 75w-90 GL5 is the one to go for. GL4 oils, like the MT90 cannot cope as well with the pressure and will break down fairly quickly in the diff. Cheers Tim
  2. Hi You need an ATF for the gearbox and due to the gearbox specs I would go for either the Amsoil ATF, Motul Multi ATF, Fuchs ATF4400, Gulf Multi Vehicle ATF, Castrol ATF Multi Vehicle or Millers Millermatic ATF SPIII. http://www.opieoils.co.uk/c-442-atfs.aspx The best option for the diff is a synthetic 75w-90, like the Silkolene Syn 5, Millers CRX NT LS, Motul Gear 300LS, Red Line 75w-90 GL5 or Gulf Competition LS. A SAE90 or 80w-90 mineral oil such as Motul 90PA, Fuchs Race Gear 90LS or Gulf Gear LS 80w-90 is a good, cheaper alternative. http://www.opieoils.co.uk/c-970-limited-slip-diff.aspx Cheers Tim
  3. Hi You need a 75w-90 for the gearbox. http://www.opieoils.co.uk/c-673-75w-90-mtfs-manual-transmission-fluid.aspx If you want to go for the best, the Millers CRX 75w-90 NT, Gulf Competition, Motul Gear 300, Red Line MT90 and Millers TRX are ideal. The Castrol Universal/Universal Plus/Syntrans Multivehicle, Motul Motylgear and Fuchs Gear Syn are all decent alternatives. Cheers Tim
  4. Hi Lee, Yes I am still a big fan of the Pro S, I use it in all my cars still. For the gearbox you will need a GL4 75w-90, ideally synthetic. Popular is the Redline MT90, Motul Gear300 and the Millers CRX 75w-90 here http://www.opieoils.co.uk/c-673-75w-90-gear-oils.aspx Cheers Guy

  7. If you haven't put the oil in yet, I'd go for a 5w-40 instead of 10w-40. It will give better cold start protection than a 10w-40 and be fine for all year round use. http://www.opieoils.co.uk/c-656-5w-40.aspx Out of those, the best ones are the Fuchs/Silkolene Pro S, Millers CFS/CFS NT, Motul 300V, Red Line and Gulf Competition. The Motul 8100 X-Cess, Millers XF Longlife, Fuchs GT1 XTL/Supersyn, Gulf Formula G/ULE, Shell Helix and Mobil Super 3000 are good, cheaper alternatives. Cheers Tim
