Which Gearbox oil is the best to use, as mine seems pretty notchy when cold.

Forgot to add it has to be oil that has the specification SAE 75W90EP API-GL5 and MIL-L-2105D.
1,2/1,4 need 1,7L
and all others 2,0

Would that be printed on the gearbox it's self or on the gearbox oil container? Just wondered if it is possible that the mechanic may have guessed thats all.

Thats pretty much the same oil that goes it to all cars. But the specification is in your user manual and on the oil container

I'm sure he got it right then. Thanks for the info m8.

Syntrax is top stuff, I've found improvements in both my cars since using it. It's even sold in Halfords, so you don't have to hunt high and low for it.
 
Aye, tis good.

Box oil is so often totally overlooked by owners, they will regularly change the engine oil but totally ignore the box oil.
 
As Normal Sir you were right, I spoke to the Mechanic who changed my oil and found out that he may have used the wrong grade oil! oops spoken to fiat and they gave me details of what I needed. passed them onto him and he is going to sort it for me tomorrow.

So you reckon once I change the oil it should stop the crunching in second?
