        Can't get this states-side...castrol's website only shows up to 75w90 here in the US, however, we all know castrol makes the fluids for BMW, so I was able to get the BMW XJ + FM 75w140 which I'm 99.9% sure is the same stuff as castrol :)

        Fixing to replace transmission and differential fluids this weekend!
        '99 Estoril/Estoril-Black S52 M-Coupe

          Just bought some of this off ebay @ £15.70/bottle delivered which is the best price I've found.

                I've put in 2l so far into the diff and it isnt flowing out of the fill plug. Or is this just the procedure for the gearbox oil?
