Even halfords only want £20 for their Carlyle kack.

Not that it would help in this situation, but I really fail to see the reluctance in getting a TC card

Northants  :'(

Wilco car parts want £10-11 for a litre  >:( I have half a litre but i will nee to try and get some more in as the gears need to be cycled then re topped up 3 times to get the torque converter filled  ::) Apparently these truck boxes are critical on fluid levels and the reason its playing up is ive not got enough oil in there  ::) or i forgot to cycle through the gears more like  :-[

Several months ago I left a sprayer with ~4L of MT90 in the pit.

Last time I opened the pit I had an empty sprayer and 1/4" of MT90 in the pit.

Oops  :-[ :-[

If they are the TC dealer that covers you, they will deliver, so who cares how far they have to come. My dealer is about 22 miles away and deliver.

Not necessarily from this supplier, but I'd use Fuchs Titan 4000 Dex 3 personally. I know its all supposed to be the same grade, but I can't bring me self to put the likes of that car plan stuff in my gear box.

So £95.48 for 20L as opposed to £51.54 on TC. :-X

That sounds like 5w30 money... if it's really that cheap, then buy 2000 drums of it and flog it at £5 per litre :y
