my second gear synchro has worn in my road going 300 DEF 90. pisses me right off. just got to change up slowly. 2nd is always the first to go on the R380's.

ATF in gearboxes. red stuff. same as pwr steering fluid. EP80/90 in your transfer box, axles and CVs. think the boxes take about 4ltrs. off hand not sure.
