[swales_p]

Sorry about that dudeone, all sorted now

Awey then fellas, what oil, g,box oil, plugs, oil filter etc etc do you use.

Cheers

Engine oil - 4.5 litres of 10W 30 semi synth - £20

Gear box oil - 75W 90 I think - its normally a automatic gear box oil but it differs depending on weather you have an LSD or not. You will need 4 quarts which is roughly 4 litres and can cost up to £70

Plugs - Depending on hoe often you change them, i'd go with platinum plugs which cost around £40 but will see you good for 10.000-15.000 miles.

Oil filter - any old generic one should do I woudn't spend more than £15.

Other things you might want to consider are...

Dizzy cap - turbo's eat through them quickly, cost £45

Rotor arm - cost £10

Coolent change - worth doing every couple of years, you must use ethelene glycol based coolent and you will need about 10ltrs should cost about £35.

Thats about all I can think of at the mo,

Matt.
