Hello All,
Can someone guide me on which gear oil to use?
I have a Getrag 245 ZF (dogleg) gearbox.
There are afew choices;
* Redline 75W90 GL-5 (high performance)
* Redline MTL 75W80 (leight weight)
* Pentoson SAE 75W80
or is there some thing else?

Re: which gear oil to use?
All fine, isn't much of a difference and these boxes aren't top critical on oil imho. Also see the FAQ section on gearboxes: viewtopic.php?f=38&t=13418
