Lots of people say castrol syntrax reasons why i suppose is loads say it !!
Phoned round for some gear oil 75w\90 the other day,and guess what the only oil in a 10 mile radius was Comma so guess whats in that particular car.
Meets or exceeds the spec so in ya go.

You need the following spec, GL5 75w-90. If it's a limited slip diff then limited slip approved oil only.

Cheers
