Ah, you want the catering pack.  Try Paddocks or your local factors then.

Paddocks - good call, free delivery if you spend over 50 beer tokens if I remember..........and seeing as the Disco rear diff pinion oil seal is peeing oil big time, and the passenger window mech just chucked all its toys out the pram - I'll hit the 50 squid mark no probs !.........no beer on Friday night for me then  :(

Terranosaurus:

--- Quote from: "Range Rover Blues" ---Now I read somehwhere recently that GL5 spec oil is no good for older cars, or as it was put "gearboxs with yellow metals in them", but Halfrauds sometimes stock GL4, sometimes GL5.  GL4 is cheaper anyway.

Not sure where you heard that. GL5 is for Hypoid type gears, where extra "sliding" pressure is exerted on the oil, so for diffs use GL5 for Gearboxes and transferes use a GL4

Jimbo:
Now I am confused.......

Paddocks don't appear to sell oil online - fair enough, it would cost a few quid to courier/post.

Did a search on Google, and found Morris Lubricants - who sell online, but you can have:

EP75W/80 or
EP80W/90 or
EP90 or
SS75W/90 - semi synthetic or
FS75W/90 - fully synthetic...............arrrggggghhhhh, which one do I need ?

On the bright side, they do 1, 5 and 25 litre drums, and any order over 50 beer tokens is free delivery !
