yeah.. seriously... imagine your gearbox without oil.

it would be farked the moment your hit 1st.

well i got a story on that

my aunt has a cq60 merc

and she took it to be serviced

and they never put gearbox oil back in

she then drove half way to dbn (+-350kms)

and then it seized

she then said "i tought i could hear something whinning and getting louder"

yes i will take 10litres pls

get Rozz to try it as well.

the specs for turbolite are:

TYPE OF USE

Specially designed for high performance engines

All gasoline or Diesel engines, Turbo or naturally aspirated, multivalves, with carburettor or with injection, with or without catalytic converter.

Suitable for all types of fuel : standard, unleaded, Diesel fuel, LPG.

All driving conditions : City, Road, Highway.

PERFORMANCE

STANDARDS ACEA A3 / B3

APPROVALS API SL / CF

VW 505 00 / VW 500 00 quality

Mercedes Benz page 229.1

* The new standard API SL is more stringent than API SJ in terms of ageing resistance (average drain interval increased), requires anti-oxydation properties that maintain a constant viscosity avoiding sluge and deposits in the crankcase, anti-wear properties and dispersent power

The synthetic base stock provides high lubricating power and protects perfectly the engine while in intensive use on road, highway or in town.

The high performing anti-wear additivation results in reduction of engine internal frictions and increases life duration by wear reduction.

SAE 10W-40 viscosity grade is fully adapted to recent gasoline and Diesel engines and ensures easier starts.

Very efficient anti-deposit and anti-black sludge power which keeps the engine clean.

Anti-oxidation, Anti-corrosion, Anti-foam properties.

idiots.

that's why i like to do the servicing myself. at least i know WHAT kinda oil is going in and i can take my own sweet time.

i usually leave the engine oil to drain for 2 hours :(

    • Working through possible solutions of converting my mechanical speedo.    Anyone know what type of speedo sensor the factory r34 gtr getrag has ? what the output is ? I assume its not a VSS and more a voltage like earlier speedo sensors ? Can an ECU read it ?  
    • roof rail delete used to be a thing, they were made locally for a while too
    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
