You have to register then ask the question for specialist lubricants I think. Haven't registered so I may be wrong.

Doubt it on one of those, in any case as old 2Diesels always says "the wrong oil's better than nee oil"

just to throw a spanner in the works Autodata says 90 in the box & axle

I've got loads of old Castrol lubrication charts at home I'll look tonight & let you know if that's not too late

Thanks mate. I think I'll put some ep90 in it now Im getting paranoid now. I can always change it again. I've got the afternoon off anyway.
