Question

Given that the search isn't working yet, can anyone tell me what type/brand of oil I should be using to change out the oils in the gearbox and diffs on my STi3 please.

Regards

Kevin.

Consensus seems to be Castrol Syntrax (75-90W). Approx 0.8lt vfor the diff, 3.5 lt for the gearbox. Expensive...at ~£9/lt.
