I just use EPA 80/90 from any car spares place.

Castrol 80W/90 differential oil is what I use.

Millers Fully synthetic. comes highly recommended by Mick Barr, independent BMW man in Leicester who rebuilds lots of Gearboxes, made my 1100 gearbox very smooth and is just about to be fitted in my GSA.

Rob - any particular mileage suitable for when you should put it in? Or can it be used at any mileage? Mine has 20k.
