    Price difference between regular and premium?

    How does one convert this price into a UK equivalent, as I'm just intrigued. roughly 131p a litre in the UK for standard gasoline/petrol

    Diaqueen/Diamond SP3 Replacement

    Yeah, thanks all. I ended up going for Motul Multi ATF. Only reason being on 2 different websites in uk who specialise in Japanese / Evolution car parts, that was the fluid they had listed so surely it can't be too bad .. Although I totally forgot to ask the dealer if they do it.. should have...

    Diaqueen/Diamond SP3 Replacement

    Thanks everyone, hope I've not spawned too much trouble for people 😂 If it says approval or meets the specs for Mitsubishi Diaqueen SP3 then in theory it should be fine, right?

    Diaqueen/Diamond SP3 Replacement

    Hi all, First off, I am UK based so certain brands etc. are not available here. Anyway.. Got an EVO 8 and the AYC/ACD fluid is low. The original is the Diaqueen/Diamond SP3 fluid however, i cant seem to source it. On the Cap it says ATF SP-III, but there is so many fluids out there, and I am...

    Therefore, why is section 3 labelled 'Composition/information on ingredients' while giving percentages and substance registry numbers (CAS), in the case of VW, with the mixture concentrations adding up to approx 100%. Young British Sarcasm it was.

    Really? Why is it different? Genuine question. I thought since it tells you the chemicals involved that it's the same thing? It's the only thing I have to base the chemicals off, I'm just comparing it to the original VW oil SDS.

    Just referring to the 2 questions in post #30. If you looked at the translated PDF I also sent in post #28, you can see the chemical composition. Also, post #19 shows the viscosity of some brands. Now, FUCHS sintofluid 75W is quite similarily composed, but the viscosity is a lot thicker it...

    G052527A2 Oil Replacement

    No offence but I'm just asking for opinions, I'm not clued up on this otherwise I wouldn't be asking? for example, my 1st question: Millers do two oils and they're both compatible: Millers EE Performance 75W - which is a synthetic base oil with Ester formulation. Millers XF Premium 75W - which...

    G052527A2 Oil Replacement

    Thanks, I understand now, I see the bit about esters and lubricating bases etc. like in the original VW oil. But I will ask this as I can't seem to find it in the document .. 1. is an ester based product better/worth the cost difference vs. Pure syn with no ester 2. is viscosity or chemical...

    G052527A2 Oil Replacement

    Cheers MolaKule. Therefore, this oil must be a group V and is not pure synthetic? Please check this file for the chemical mixtures, it is translated from Polish. Do you think it is best advised to use a synthetic oil with Ester formulation as a replacement, or will just fully synthetic be ok...

    G052527A2 Oil Replacement

    Just wondering how can you tell it's a ZDDP, I thought that would contain ZINC but it doesn't say it in the name anywhere ..

    G052527A2 Oil Replacement

    ^ Anyone??? Reason being, the Fuchs has the same additives / chemicals as the original oil, but is thicker. The miller oils and others are thinner but have different chemical mixtures...

    "Phosphoric acid esters - ami salt - new" ECHA: 01-2119493620-38 Does this mean it has esters in the original oil?

    G052527A2 Oil Replacement

    So, my question here is, do I get a gear oil that is fully synthetic so Group III probably, or one with Ester technology, Group V. For example, Millers have 2 oils that meet my spec. 1. Millers EE Performance 75W - 6.3cSt at 100c - which is a synthetic base oil with Ester formulation...

    Soo, fuchs is 40.8 at 100c & 6.7 at 40c. Fuchs specs. So better than what I used but not the best. wolf Ecotech is Europe based but not UK .. otherwise would be great.
