or let me kno wot oil would be best 2 use 4 my willy gear box?
thanks :)
use ATF (automatic transmission fluid) its fully synthetic and gear changes are smoother, the retro renault boys swear by it and i run it myself
Currently using Millers, you wil need about 2.9 litres IIRC. Had Redline in before that and must admit Redline stuff was better.
ill be using Fuchs 75W-90 fairly soon, got it from Opie

where can i get this from rich? and how much?
Any old motorfactor will do it mate, about £6 per litre or something IIRC?
Last time I used that stuff was on my RS Cosworth
so about £18 then 2 change my oil........
u sure ATF isnt just 4 automatocs rich?
You should be a ble to get 5litre tubs for it fo cheaper
£3.75 per litre from GSF
:D nice 1 m8!
ATF doesn't pong half as bad as stards gear oil either, which is a bonus
so about £18 then 2 change my oil........

yes mate i'm sure, and my gearbox took about 3.4 litres to be filled properly as its supposed to be filled until it starts coming out of the filler hole, better to get too much than not enough
off to GSF saturday it is then :D

Erm think it was more than that as it was 5 litres of Millers and not that much left. Using Redline took 4 Quart bottles with little spare so bank on buying 4 litres of whatever you use as it will be more than 3.
ye ill be getting 4 ltrs.....this wil do me though right?

Hi !
It is preferable to use the OEM oil for gear box, it is the last of renault.
In France we all use this, after different oil tested, it is the best
But quite expensive: 40£ the 5litres
ELF TRJ 75W80
