Crunching? Try adjusting the cable, it`s obviously not quite right.

Ok i've found out i need Redline MT90 Gear box oil.
I've read somewhere i need around 2 and a half bottles of this.

Can anyone please confirm

[andrewb]

bottles are normally 1litre. gti box holds around 3.8litres.

Go to your nearest Land Rover garage and ask for MTF90, sam stuff and should be cheaper. This stuff is what the Honda lads use to "ease" the crunching, it won't stop the crunching as thats down to your synchros most likely

Honda stuff is MTF2, about £9/L from Honda dealers, but Rover/Land Rover stuff is the same.
