Subject:Gear oil (again)
Date: Fri, 7 May 1999 03:52:34 -0400

I followed the earlier discussion about gear oil, and made a phone call too
ZF Norway.  They told me that the only oil to be used on a ZF 5-DS-25 is
API GL4 (must not use API GL5, he said ??).  SAE 80, SAE 80/85 or SAE 80/90
could be used.  He prefered fully syntetic oil.
I don`t understand this !  What about the diffrential ?
He gave me aproved oils from his list and here is some of them:

Mobil 1
Mobilube 1 SHC (fully syntetic)
Mobilube GXA
Mobilube XHP
Mobiltrans SHC

Castrol
Dynadrive 80W90
Syntrans
EP SAE80W

Can anybody confirm this information ??
