Thumbs up

1 ltr Syntrax Universal for £7.99 inc VAT

Your rear diff requires about 0.8 litre

Your Gearbox takes roughly 3.5 litres IIRC

I use Castrol Syntrax which you can buy from Halfords, but its £9.99 a litre. If you really need it today then go to local car shop, but if you can hang on a few days, I'd order from the link above, FREE delivery on orders over £30 so you'd get that if you buy 5 litres
