Lt77 What oil please?
So when we rebuilt our 200tdi 90 we put EP90 in the gear box.

I now understand we would have been better to put in ATF in it, is that right?

We only did 500 miles in it, last year, but it was difficult to get into 5th gear.

Any advice very welcome.

HK07 2007 90 Puma - Love it - Best car I have ever owned.

1989 Ninety 200tdi - Love it - Second best car I have ever owned.

1951 80" Series 1 - Love it - Third best car I have ever owned.

ATF as Ashcrofts recomend. You can use Redline MTL and a few others.

I'm sure it's hard to get into 5th !

EP90 would be ok in the LT230
