Yeah i dont think folk have read it before replying.

Opieoils cant get me it and cant even get me an alternative that is suitable.

Castrol have said transmax z is avail in the uk but i may have to go to a Man or daf truck service centre to get it.

Just gave them a call and there rep is going to call me tomorrow to see what he can do.

Not thought about Royal purple as no one on any of the falcon forums have mentioned it.

Its for the auto box which is Casgtrol TQ95 or Transmax Z.

Did you contact the supplier in the link I posted and ask if it's avalable in smaller quantities?

FWIW the price for 20 litres looks pretty good for a fully synthetic ATF. I'd be tempted myself at the price, I'll be needing 8 or so litres of ATF this year and would prefer fully synthetic.

I didnt contact them as thats the price for 20l every month.

I found a shop up here but its £200 for a one off 20l drum.

you've not got a purple ute by any chance and were heading southbound out of Perth on Saturday just before 2pm? If so I spotted you - as Si says pity its a Ford rather than a Holden but still a nice toy.

i refusw to pay the inflated prices holden ute owners here want i mean 12k for a 2002 model with high mileage.

I paid less than that for an 04 falcon with less mileage and faster than the ss to boot.

Yes it was me heading down to falkirk

If you can split it into 2 x 10L I might be interested in halfing it with you.

Are you in A'deen? - I'm in Edin, but I dare say we could work something out...

Sounds good, do you have a link to the spec of the Valvoline fluid?
