I am just about to change my gearbox oil, and have read many posts on different sites, and I think the general census is that "Castrol Syntrax" is the one to use.Approx. 3.8l of it.Not cheap though.

Buckshot try the lube recommendations on www.shell.com.au, www.castrol.com.au, www.valvoline.com.au, www.fuchs.com.au, www.mobil.com.au and www.penrite.com.au

These companies will give you recommendations on what to use in there product range. With my GUIV 4.2TD gearbox is shell spirax GX, transfer case shell XGO, diffs shell spirax AX ( lockers f & r) and engine shell rimula X 15w/40.
