Cant source Diff Oil locally
Im looking for some Diff/ Gear box oil for my service, but cant seem to source any locally (coventry)
Its for a P1 and im looking for either Castrol Syntrax, or Silkolene Syn 5.
can anyone reconmend where to source either one the cheapest, and/or offer me alternative oils to use and where to get them from?
Thanks in advance.
p.s. i've tried Halfords, MVC, Oscott etc. etc. Oscott can only get it in if i buy it by the box load (12*1ltr or 5*5ltr)...

Just bought 5 litres of Millers TRX Synth 75W90 off ebay for about £45 delivered. Just right for doing the gearbox and rear diff. Whoever it was I got it off has still got 4 more bottles.

Millers from Zen Performance or AS Performance, either will advise the best grade for your car

If they do not have it I bet they can get it......haggle on the price also...they do a discount card...
Remember, the gearbox and diff need GL5 oil.....many oils meet that spec..you do not have to go for the big names to get the same quality...
