Re: Change Manual gearbox fluid?
I've done the gearoil change on my GB after having really stiff shifting issues in the cold. Replaced with Redline MTL and have had the easiest shifting gearbox I have ever had. Highly recommended.

I read the tip of opening the top one first
Very good to repeat!! Also read the discussion about what oil to use.
We dont have all those hundreds of american brands here, but I will check for it.
I asked around a bit and everyone just pointed me to a proper brand 75w80 gl4 gearbox oil.
They like to sell kroon oil here. wich has a few ranges.
When the weather gets a bit better I will just change it then.
This sylvester I was in -16 for a few days and it was the first time I felt it to be a thing.
To be fair there was a lot of northern wind. The window washer fluid froze up, even though it was supposed to be good for -30. And even the springs made crackling noises.
