Going to change the diff and Gbox oil out, been in a while. Does anyone have the codes for which Redline oils to use. Its just a normal road car with no track use, albeit with a set of QED 420 cams and 150ho. All help gratefully received.
thanks
Mark

Hi Mark, I recently changed the oil in our Elan.
I used MTL in the gearbox, and 75W90ns in the back axle.

I retract the MT-90 as I did also use MTL.

I used the normal redline MTL for the Lotus. Also have MT90 but for the daily.
For some reason I bought heavy duty redline diff oil. Which is a peptobismol pink, seems to work fine thou and have a very nice quiet diff.
