The good oil
Posted: Tue Sep 05, 2006 6:47 pm
Just a bit of info for fellow GQ owners with notchy boxes 
My gearbox was difficult to get into 1st and the shift from 1st to 2nd was a bit rough aswell.
Yesterday I changed the oil. I decided to try Castrol Multitrax. Worked a treat
There is still a very slight notchiness. But it is a huge improvement on how it was before the oil change. The oil I drained was still fresh and golden in colour (Castrol EPX 80W/90).
The Multitrax was $36 for 4 litres - only a few bucks more than the EPX 80W/90 I had been using.
Hope that helps some other GQ notchy box sufferers
