Just wondering what oil you would reccomend for my gear box and diffs.The rear one is a LSD.Vehicle is GU Patrol.4.2.
What ones do Nissan use?Is there better ones than theirs?
Cheers

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.
