Think you mean gearbox
No i meant what i said. Transfer box on P38 takes Automatic transmission fluid. NOT gear oil.

I ain't done it yet but was told to put it in me transfer box on me manual disco, and mtf 94 in manual gearbox, I'll have to look again what I need to put in there.
Your P38 is not a Disco. Discos also used automatic transmission fluid in the manual gearboxes at one time. Only when Honda became involved with Rover was the MTF94 used. It is a Honda spec oil.

I assume we're talking a P38 here? Thread seemed to get a bit confused. P38 final drive units 75W 90R according to RAVE. ATF Dexron III in transfer box and auto gearbox. MTF94 in manual gearbox.

They won't post to France:doh: Locally, I can only get 80W90, just a bit more drag but it won't do any harm.

On a vehicle with the aerodynamics profile of a block of flats i can't see 80/90 as opposed to 75/90 making a lot of difference.
