Right guys.

Planning on giving the scoob a service. But wanting diff and box oils to go with it.

Currently running 330hp, I barely use it to be honest, but want to make sure everythings protected.

Currently on 86k miles '03 Blobeye

Im thinking Fuchs Titan Race Pro R 10w-40 Ester synth for the motor, ill get a subaru genuine oil filter for it.

Panel filter - one of the cosworth ones?

What im not sure about is gearbox and diff oils - is this even something I can do myself? Any special tools needed etc?

So really what im asking is whats the best oils for an 80 odd k scoob running at that power - and rarely used!

Hi
Engine oil
My preference in order would be

1.Silverline Synionic - Stockist Ray at Silverline
https://www.facebook.com/Silverlineukltd/

2.Fuchs - Stockist Tim/Guy at Opie Oils
http://www.opieoils.co.uk/

3.Royal Purple - Stockist Alyn at AS Performance

Gearbox oil - would depend on how the car is used to an extent
(I use redline shock proof light - but mine is a track car so that might be over the top) You need 75/90. As a more standard oil I have used Fuchs.

Panel filter. K&N have always done me proud

Best off calling any of the above and mentioning how you use the car and what spec it is.

Cheers
Steve

Thanks Steve!

Forgot about the Silverline oil actually, meant to give it a try after seeing the comment on here.

Im hoping to take it on a track day at some point this year, but its not driven hard all the time.

thanks for your help

Hi

You need a 75w-90 GL5 oil for the gearbox and diff.

http://www.opieoils.co.uk/c-673-75w-90-gear-oil.aspx

The Millers CRX NT, Motul Gear 300, Red Line 75w-90NS and Gulf Competition are ideal as top end options. The Millers TRX Synthetic/EE Nanodrive, Mobil SHC, Castrol Syntrax Universal Plus and Valvoline Synpower TDL are good, but a step down from the top oils. Fuchs Gear Syn, Motul Motylgear, Millers TRX Semi and Castrol Universal are good, cheaper options.

Cheers
