UK Mobil1 gearbox oil supplier

[jevvy]

I want to change the oil in my G50 gearbox and I have read on here that 'Mobil1 75/90 gearbox oil' is the stuff to use however I cant seem to find it anywhere in the UK.

Has anyone found any in the UK and if so please can you tell me where...

Thanks in advance

Mobil helped me source it - I think I contacted them via e-mail.

I was pointde to Cotswold Chemicals, 01453 825292, based in Stonehouse, Glos.

Thanks for your reply guys

I have called Cotsworld Chemicals and they have it is stock

1 Litre is £8.50 + VAT
20 liters is £128 + VAT

According to the book the G50 gearbox needs 3.4 litres.

If I buy 4 x 1 litre it will cost £34+VAT+£8 postage

If a few locals with G50's need to do a gearbox oil change soon then we can get 5 changes out of a 20 litre tub with a few liters spare and it will only be £25.50+VAT+postage each

Its a shot in the dark....any takers????

Hi Guys

I'm in the process of doing my 3.2 - 3.6 conversion and will be changing the gearbox oil before I put it all back in. I have fully drained the oil that was in there so it is totally empty.

I just wanted to double check how much oil I need - I have read that the G50 needs:

3.0 or 3.1 or 3.4 liters

Basically do I need 3 or 4 liters?

too late guys - I decided to stop being a tight-git and just ordered the 4 liters

thanks anyway

I have read however, that in cold weather the mobile 1 may be a little too thick for smooth shifts. Just an FYI.
