Transfer Box oil

Has this become the new unobtanium ?

Been told by two motor-factors round here that it's "main dealer only" ?

Supply chain issues ?

What are you lot using ? and where from ?

TIA

Try Opie Oils. I think the central box takes a different oil.

Appears to be the same spec. as RAVENOL DTF-1 Transfer Fluid (TF-0870) but half the price. Thumbs Up

ETA- I use their products in my FFRR on the recommendation of those on this forum and the FFRR one.

So far, so good. Thumbs Up
