Question N/A different fluids
Hello, my car has now 80k km and i wanted to change the transmission and the rear differential fluid/oil.

I read on the service manual that i need for the transmission ( it's a manual transmission )

MB 236,2 / SAE 5W-20 API SL - GF-3


And for the rear differential




SAE 75W85 MB 231,1 / SAE 80W90 GL-5/MIL-2105-E


I looked on the internet what kind of product i could buy and use for this service yet i'm not sure on what is better then the other so here is my list and hope i can get your advice on what is best.


For the transmission i found those :


  1. Mobil Super 3000 X1 Formula FE 5W-30
  2. TITAN GT1 0W-20 (XTL-Technology)
  3. Fuchs Titan ATF 10
  4. Mobil ATF 200
For the rear differential i found those :


  1. TITAN SINTOPOID FE 75W-85
  2. Mobil Delvac Synthetic Gear Oil 75W-140
  3. Castrol Syntrax Limited Slip 75W-140
  4. Castrol Axle Z Limited Slip 90
If you have something else in mind please share, since i can't get all kind of lube delivered to my place the best would be a common brand available in Europe

Oh and last thing, I'm going to change entire brake set soon and want to put new brake fluid too at the same time would this one be good ?



  1. Mobil Brake Fluid DOT 4
  2. Castrol React SRF Racing
  3. Mobil Brake Fluid DOT 4ESP
Also if you have something better in mind please share.

For personal references i do like Mobil, it's quality in my ears but also i can get more easy on their products where i live.

Regards Johnny
