I've found some elf 75-80 tranself nfj
But on some searches in here i have found that its got nfp ? Will the one ive found be okay

 

[MartinR]

^^^thats the proper renault stuff i think

75-80w Gl5 is the correct grade but most use 75-90w due to cost and it works with excess heat better iirc

 

[rollerdan]

Yea its genuine renault mate just making sure the njp and njh stuff is the same .

 

[rollerdan]

Nfp even

 

[rollerdan]

This is the stuff

Yep that's ok, I used that in mine.

 

[Laine_16v]

Thought GL4 was the correct spec?

I used peugeot synthetic 75 w80. ????

 

[cliokid182]

where is the best place to buy gear box oil for our cars then??

 

[Amos91]

Opie oils (trader here) is a good start.

I use Total BV 75w80 fully synthetic. Its only £12 for 2l from pug or citroen which is very cheap and it goes in my other car too

I am also ready to change oil in my RS clio 172. Is there a different oil for mine rather then 182? Also, what would be the most high-end option oil?

I do plan on properly driving it around racetrack, so it will have quite a bit of spirited driving to handle.

 

[MartinR]

Any decent make/brand will do and hasn't got to be the best stuff millers fully synthetic 75-80w gl5 gear oil is only £30 for 5 litres at opie oils.

Thats what i use

How much of oil should I buy to complete the procedure?

So I will look for fully synthetic 75-80w gl5 oil.

 

[MartinR]

3.1 litres but 3 litres will do
