Oil type/changes

[thundercatpt]

well in 3.000 km il will change engine oil , differential oil

what ive found that looks to be good is this:

Motul 8100 ECO-NERGY 5w30 . 6 Lts - 55€ (78 AUD)
Motul Gear 300 75w90 - 1 lt - 25€ (35 AUD)

has anyone ever used this or can give me any feedback is this brand is a good choice ? both have the needed specification thats on the manual

thanks

I've good things about both of those Motul oils

I use Nulon in my 6MPS though. Super Cheap Auto have the 6L full synthetic on sale for $58 at the moment and it is a VERY good oil.

[thundercatpt]

can you guys tell me what is the best oil to use on the differential and gearbox ?

doesnt matter price

I use Nulon as well..been using it every 5000kms for many years now...

150K kms on the clock and still running well.

They sell promotional 6L bottles for around $60....but some places have 5L...so look around.

nulon is semi-synthetic

wouldnt a 100% syntethic oil be better ? like millers 75w90
