Default millers gearbox oil??

Just been on the millers website to get the exact name of gearbox oil, seems as if they do the 75/90 semi synthetic and full synthetic?? would there be any major difference between the two? Any recomendations on what to use?

cheers

Have you noticed any issues with the synchro performance when using the full synthetic fluid? I remember having problems 4th to 5th at high revs in my classic when using Silkolene Syn 5, cured by reverting to Syntrax.
How does the full syn. Millers perform in a 6 speed box?

Millers CRX is pretty much the only oil we use, never had any issues that we have seen with customers using Silkolene...............

only other preference is the Motul

the Millers works in all 5/6 speed boxes incl. DCCD (unlike some semi-synth oils)

you need just over 3.5ltrs for a 5speed and 4 for a 6spd
