Gearbox Oil Change

Post by **Probe3** » Tue Jul 26, 2022 3:20 pm

Hi Folks

Re N Reg 1995 24v 133k crossover

Just changed the gearbox oil & wanted to check what I used is ok.... My mechanic said it is what is recommended on his database.

Triple QX (Apparently made by Shell)
Semi synthetic
EP 75w90
Meets the requirements of:
API GL-5
MIL-L-2105D
MAN 342 M-2
ZF TE-ML 05A
7A
12E
16B-D
17B
19B
Suitable for use in manual gearboxes and hypoid rear axles. Can be used in all applications where EP (extreme pressure) gear oils are recommended

Any thoughts appreciated

Will drop it out asap and put something else in if no good. Hopefully not!

PS: other work completed today -
Oil /filter change 5w30 synthetic
Coolant change
Cam belt / tensioner / pullys etc
Aux belt
Water pump
Power steering belt
Front rocker gasket

New boot struts came from Rock Autos the other week too

Next job = rusty sunroof then all needs a good polish
