Which is the better grade of F40 box oil
Seems to be conflicting answers to this question. Vauxhall say 75/85w (93 165 290 part number ) but ive seen a lot of post of people using 75/90w.
Is there a reason for chance in weight of oil or just personal preference?
I was thinking about using this MANNOL 2x1L Extra Getriebeoel... -
Update:
The Ebay seller i purchased the driveshaft from and whom was selling it with the genuine VX part number in the title is a fraud. They are cheap chinese copies and Ebay are aware of them and will be pulling the listing.

A friend in my street has a 16 plate insignia B 2.0l 170 auto and today he went out to his car and it wouldnt crank. All the lights on the dash were going out when trying to crank the engine.
