Could you please tell me what the recommended oil grades should be in the following components of my MY99 5-door UK turbo?

1. Rear Diff
2. Gearbox
3. Engine.

Thanks in advance.

everyone will have slightly differing views but, personal recomend would be.....
g/box & diff......75w90 full synthetic
engine............10w40 synthetic min. (other options 15/50 - 10/60 - 10/50 depending on manufacturers range)

most quality manufacturers like Silkolene, Millers Oils, Motul, etc. will be fine.........
