Title: What gear oil are you guys using
Post by: dandav1985 on October 24, 2013, 11:23:53 am

Alreet people,

 My mate has a GT TDI 140 similer to mine (not the GT Sport) he wants the gear oil changed, ive used the gear oil from the dealers but he wants to use a slightly cheaper option so just asking what you guys are using or whats a good midrange one to use............or grade.

His car is going to be remapped to so wants the car to be in tip top condition before and his ca has covered 68000 miles on a 06 plate

Cheers Dan

That's the best one to use - why fit cheap stuff after a remap etc  :happy2:
Millers NT oils are the best you can get
