Tim, you crack me up!

You work at Halfords & dont even use the guide books on the shelves that are there for customers.

Its some form of ATF & IIRC the blue Halfords bottles have General Motors written on some of them.

Halfords own brand shizzle should be fine, I think they have two different types one of which was for pugs and the other for everything else iirc....

Bear in mind they will be hidden in a random part of the store, nowhere near any of the other oils. Or that could just be my local store being retarded lol

[AlexW]

I use halfords own, Ep 80w/90 GL-4 Its in the haynes manual and i also have the bottle from halfords sat in front of me.

[Stuart]

I used to use DEX III (technically ATF but GM specced it like that)

[Timmy]

i have 75-90 stuff

[Timmy]

[Andy]

Atf is the best to use it goes in most things really.When i worked at a clutch and gearbox centre everything that didnt use atf just had 10/40 engine oil

Sure? I remember Halfords trying to tell Lee there was two types when we did mine, but he was certain they were all the same.

[Ernie]

just get the bigger one with a bigger cable tie lol.

Depends on the CV joint. The boots I bought blatantly didnt go over the joints the shop sold me... returned them & was given alternative ones which did fit. Theres usually much confusion at motor factors regarding Nova driveshafts & CV's.
