    Just an update on t he Penrite oils I popped in the Disco some weeks back. The motor is running super smooth, and the gearbox has settled down to be very much more driveable. Having looked through the service dockets from AMV I suspect they were using Valvoline Duragear in the tranny, but having never used it I dunno if that was the red soup that I removed. I've found with the Penrite gearbox oil that I need to be patient with gear changes for the first 2 mins of running, but beyond that it's great stuff.

    I am going to drop the diff oils this weekend and replace with Penrite's equivalent to EP90.

    Red will be ATF of some kind or maybe Castrol syntrax. Dura gear is yellow just like Penrite 75, I use either of these oils both work fine. I normally buy Dura Gear because it comes in 4L container. They always have the black stuff on the filter. So I reckon if the bills say they have been putting Dura gear in it they have only topped it up not changed it. LPG engine shouldn't dirty oil like petrol does as it burns much cleaner.
