Hi All

Can i get some idea of peoples thoughts on these replacement oils for my TD5 Defender:

Diffs Easy Shift 80W/90
Transfer SYNSTAR GL 75W-90

What do people use for the TRANS & Power Steer?


Vehicle has done 88,000kms. Is it worth doing all oils now??

Have a read here Mike http://www.aulro.com/afvb/good-oil/71605-oils-according-rick130.html
Personally I'd go the Synstar in the diffs too, maybe the 80W-140 grade in the rear diff if used/abused with heavy loads and towing, particularly in a Sals.
Texaco/Caltex's borate AW fortified diff oils are particularly good too.
