What "gearbox" Oil
Hi all
Due to recent posts im well clue'd up on what engine oil to use, but no one seems to have posted what gearbox oil to use, the cars a 2002 sti import, and before all the useless keyboard warriors get involved i already used "SEARCH" and it didnt return S*%t
Thanks All
Andy

With due respect to Oilman who doesn't sell Castrol, Castrol Syntrax is the one recommended by those people I know who know, through extensive experience. There have been long threads on this. Just to prove my conviction, I have five litres of Motul in the garage now, but I've ordered the Castol Syntrax and that's what's going in. Gear change quality is the thing that makes it - fully synth is too slippery (apparently).

Castrol Finland does NOT recommend it for severe use.. I have asked them few weeks about that.

I do sell Castrol.
I dont stock the Syntrax because quite frankly there is so much better.
You use what you feel comfortable with.
