It may fit but not worth the risk. I've not had good experiences with pattern boots so now only use genuine Fiat ones, I have stock of them if you have trouble getting one. Will check exact price but I seem to remember they're about £14.
Selena ZC90 is the best oil, 20/50 engine oil is fine if you can't get the Selena. Someone was selling it on eBay, I have some if you can't find any :p

A panda gearbox takes 2.4L so best to get 3 and have a little left for future topping up.
 
I'm brassic at the moment but give me a quote of 3 litres of gear oil and a cv boot.

I assume it boot comes with new clips?

Fiat only supply the boot on it's own. If you're not worried about originality cable ties are as good as anything, happy to give you a couple. I can supply the steel straps too but you really need the tool to fit them properly.

Will PM you when I've found my receipts and can see what I payed. (y)
 
i just got them from my local motor factors. its the same boot that fits the fiat cinquecento. (as that is the car i bought the boot for originally)

right man, gearbox oil. can be a pain to get hold of.

i made a video explaining what ZC90 oil is.



so SAE 85w/90 GL-3. it must be GL 3 if it is not, it will cause problems.

quick ebay brings up this:
http://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/i.html?_trksid=p5197.m570.l1313&_nkw=ZC90&_sacat=0

the oil in the tins is actually made by Olio Fiat so its got to be the right stuff!

now i know Casterol made SAE 75w/90 GL-3 oil. ive been told that can be use too. however, i like to stick with what was recommended by fiat.

oh and for those useless metal clips that hold the CV boots on.. bugger them you do need a proper tool to tighten them on.
i just used some really thick zip ties and tightened them up with a pair of pliers. not a drip to be found on the bottom of my gearbox!

Hope this helps man!
