koooowweeee Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 Hi Sorry if this has been asked hundreds of times but I couldn't find the info on here on my phone. Anyway, I've got a 2005 t280 (2L) for tranny with 100k on the clock. My mate is going to do a service on it but looking at different sites it says different oil types. So what type do I use? Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iantt Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 5w30 synthetic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iantt Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 derr, wasnt reading properly , you want transmission oil grade, will go have a look, what gearbox? 5 spd or 6spd? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
koooowweeee Posted May 2, 2017 Author Share Posted May 2, 2017 No it's engine oil I wanted. The service kits on eBay list it as needing 10w40 my mate (not a mechanic either) said it should be 5w30 as you said. Anyway the gear box oil is on the to-do list so info on that would be good as well. It's a 5 speed box. Now and then it slips out of first and getting it into reverse is a problem at times so I'm hoping new oil will help a bit Thanks for the reply as well.
