Gearbox oil

[Danix60]

Hi,
looking to change the gearbox oil,
wanted to ask what to pick,
ELF nfj 75w80 or Motul Motylgear 75W80 ?
Cheers,
Daniel.

Personally recommend the Elf NFJ

Used Motylgear and also Millers, all fully synth.

The nfj feels better then motul?

 

[Chris_Beer]

Difficult... as the Motul was in a 225 Megane

the elf stuff isn't fully synthetic, get the millers or motul fully synthetic. Doubt you will tell the difference between all 3 to be fair

Elf NFJ has noticeably made my gear changed more slick when warm.

is that compared to oil thats been in there 10 years though?

I know you only need 3.1 L but I bought 10 so i can do 3 changes.

Its £26.99 for 5L

Its good to do gearbox oil changes at the same time as the engine oil, only takes you and extra 20 mins and costs an extra £18.

Been using the stuff for years, always highly rated it. When the Clio 3 came out they sufferd with notchy gear selection, this stuff always cured it.
