HI All. I have had my car for over 8 years now and am feeling brave enough to carry out some maintenance myself. I have approached the main dealers and the costs are through the roof for something i think maybe a lot cheaper if I bought elsewhere. Can anyone recommend which oil i need for the front and rear diff, and the gearbox. Is it the same for both? Also which brake pads to go for? I have standard steel discs.

Thanks in advance.

For the gearbox, a few of us have found the Ford spec oil works best, Motorcraft WSD-M2C200-C.
For the Rear diff, we use Redline 75W90 GL5. For the front diff, I dont know - I haven't got one smile

The importance is GL4 for the gearbox and GL5 for the Diff.
