Hi,

And was a good oil to use in our scoobies....
So could anyone help me with is I'm having the oil seal for gearbox changed(, due to major leak), next week ans want to put good oil in, I normally use Miller's oil,
Excuse the poor spelling ans Gartner, using phone and it carp to post with... Sorry.
:-) x

personally would stick with Millers competition range............

ScoobyStu 22-01-2013 02:22 PM

Personally have, and would, use the above to get it too... :-)

cheeky 22-01-2013 03:27 PM

I know, but I can't order it in time so need a good oil to put in for now, then when service it I'll do Miller's oil.x

asperformance 22-01-2013 04:24 PM

Castrol Syntrax Driveline then would be my next choice if Millers or Motul comp oils weren't available............

Ah I see. If they can't deliver it in time for next week then Cliffords in Portslade are a better bet than Halfords :-)

AS Performance
delivery service is very very good,

if you order goods they are normally with you the next day or the next, even though they are based up north..

:agreed: Ordered mine tonight, will be with me Thursday....

only because you called about an hour too late to catch the courier..............8-)

generally speaking if you call before 2.30ish then we will package to leave that evening on a "next day" delivery...........

cheeky 22-01-2013 08:26 PM

Thank you guys,I'll order online tonight from the place suggested but also just a quick question... My car done 142000.what Miller's be best? 10/40 fully synthetic is what I put in before, but not sure if it thick enough for the age of this engine x

cheeky 22-01-2013 08:30 PM

It's only a turbo 2000 and boosts not been wound.up yet, so straight through decat, in filter irridium 7 sparks... That's all guys as want engine solid before mess around like my old scooby xx
