Gear oil change

[prodigy]

Hello all,

In average, how long should we change the gear oil. I notice my gear oil change has already exceeded 2000KM coz the mechanic put a reminded sticker at 10000KM interval. Is 10K interval ok?

hmm is gear and gearbox the same? for gearbox if u dont change until 50,000 km's also ok one .. recommended to change every 30,000 km's. Some ppl 20,000 km's also tukar liao. So u choose which one :lol: :rolleyes:

If normal car, change gearoil about 40k km. If performance car, and always go track n drags, suggest to change every 20k km.

Depends on how you drive. I rev hard so I change mine more frequent... used to do it every 20k km but now with this car.. the gear oil is Rm60/L so I am considerign doing it at a longer interval... However, with my Waja the service interval is supposed to be 40kkm while this car is supposed to be 60-90kkm...
