What gearbox oil do i use in my 1998 classic turbo? Can i use engine oil?

 

Lol engine oil is for engines, gearbox fluid for gearboxes!!


75/90 is what you want in there, NOT 10w40!! lol.

 

Thats what i thought. My dad said i might be able to use engine oil as you do with classic cars, thought i'd double check that before i destroyed my gearbox lol

 

Here you go

If you want to go for the best, the Millers CRX 75w-90 NT, Motul Gear 300, Redline 75w-90NS, Gulf Competition and Millers TRX are ideal for the gearbox. The Castrol Universal, Motul Motylgear and Fuchs Gear Syn are all decent alternatives.

How many litres will i need for a full change?

 

3.75 odds for gearbox, just under 1ltr for rear diff. i.e. buy a 5ltr carton

 

Ok cheers lad, so you can use same stuff in rear diff to?

 

Yes, those ones I listed are fine for the diff to

 

We use the Millers CRX NT very good oil.
