So I need to change the gearbox oil and was hoping to use Texaco MTF 94, but the gearbox has the odd leak so I was wondering whether using something like 'Wynn's Gear Oil Treatment with Stop Leak' would make things better or worse?

Any advice appreciated.

Thanks

What year / gearbox do you have? The correct oil is listed in RAVE or your owners manual.

My 99MY ZF Auto box is filled with Dexron 3 (actually Castrol TQ DIII) and a slight leak, combined with a judder between first and second was fixed by adding a bottle of Lucas Transmission Fix to my last fluid change (thanks to Datatek)

I have no idea about the manual box, however.

Oil seams correct if its manual diesel - not sure about the additive but Lucas make one for manual boxes like the one some use in the auto
Called Lucas Heavy Duty Stabilizer, never used it though

Thanks for you replies, I should have said that I was talking about a manual gearbox. Wasn't sure what other additives were available.

Any one tried any other gearbox oil additives?


Thanks
