Posted 16/05/08 08:43 PM Share Posted 16/05/08 08:43 PM XA is a full synthetic, I'd almost recommend the Penrite full synthetic with the Nulon additive though, but its up to you, its much of a muchness either war.

Posted 09/08/09 08:52 AM Share Posted 09/08/09 08:52 AM Ive changed my FG diff oil and its real simple. As scatrd said you wont need to jack it up, just need patience to get the new oil in. Was pretty grubby after the first 8000ks, and changed to nulon 80w-140, the bottle has an extractable tube in the bottle also to put the new stuff in.
