Okay, don't want to open the Slick50 debate but due to gearchange feeling notchy decided to put some in the gearbox. Got the bottle with the plastic tube, removed the filler and squirted it in the filler tube (had just done an oil change so the level was going to be okay). Last glug, carefully removed the bottle to be presented with a tubeless end

The tube had fell done the filler, oh my gawd, pictures of having to drop the gearbox, then tought it was only a bit of plastic tube maybe it'd just get chewed up if I ignored it? Remembered I had one of those long flexible screw/nut grabber things, thought it was worth a go. Gently inserted it into the hole (calm down ), pressed the plunger and withdrew gingerly. Couldn't believe it got the dam thing first time

Let that be a lesson to anyone thinking of using Slick50 andf by the way it has made a big difference to the gearchange, an awful lot smoother.

I would be more worried about the slick 50 fuking up my gears than the plastic thing you managed to remove.

Do yourself a favour and put some proper gearbox oil in like redline shockproof. You would think people who make gearbox oil for a living would know whether or not their product needed improving by some alien fluid.

good luck!

Wouldn't use it in engine due to turbo temp etc.
Have put Shockproof in, but Slick50 has made a difference to the gear shifting. Not as bigger problem in gearboxes as lower temperatures, loads of threads about it.

Hmmm.

Not good, the Slick 50 that is.
