If it is any help Hamster, I change mine every 15k as per the official schedule and use decent quality 10w40 semi-synthetic.

So far nothing lubricated by the oil has ever been changed, and the engine still sounds sweet - as sweet as a diesel can sound of course.

I read it….My other car is an old london cab which had 466,000 miles on the clock when i bought it. speedo didn't work so it would be even more. still going strong but body work needs attention...

What other manufacturers use JATCO?

My Ford Galaxy had a JATCO box which promptly failed at 109K miles,lost the third gear completely diagnosed as a solenoid fail, when we opened the gearbox there was metal shards everywhere!

Was there a taxi round Whitby way that had done Around 400,000 miles. Seem to remember a photo of it on here sometime ago? Or perhaps my mind is playing tricks.

Marinabrian has a pic of a Durham taxi that has done mega miles.
