Oil change

[drroberts490]

hey guys,
its that time of the year again, time for a service
I've been using halfords 5w 40 semi synthetic for the last 3 years, seems ok but she seems to be a bit noisy when cold.
Was thinking of going with a 10w 40 this time, can anyone recommend a half decent oil. Don't wanna pay a fortune but obviously don't want anything too cheap and nasty.
Also whats the best stuff for the gearbox and what is the capacity, not done that yet!
Cheers

I use Unipart 5/40 Fully Synthetic! It's £18 in The Range ;)

The gearbox takes 2.2 litres, the recommended oil is MTF94 which you can get from Land Rover or Honda dealers, but the equivalent is a 75W/90 gear oil to GL4 spec.
