Fill us in if it does solve the 5th gear crunch - mine does the same when changin above 130kph. I thought bleeding the cluch would have done the trick but no luck

Castrol Syntrax also is pretty good and might keep V happy if you use it...

I use 75w 90 Semi synthetic Castrol Taf X, works pretty good. Makes a good shift as those who have had it fitted can confirm :lol: 8)

Re: redline gearbox oil.

Hey, newbie to the posting.. :D
But I have to say that Redline is awesome!! When I first got my R, I couldn't get into first when the car was rolling and second was a b*tch!! I thought the clutch was stuffed.. Anyway dropped in the Redline oil and within 2 or 300 K's she was sweet as..
