Compatibility & Fitment

• Manual Transmissions: Recommended for various vehicle manufacturers where an 80W90 GL-4 or GL-5 gear oil is specified. This includes, but is not limited to, certain manual gearboxes in:
  • BMW: E30, E36, E46 series manual transmissions (verify specific model requirements).
  • Volkswagen: Golf, Jetta, Passat manual gearboxes manufactured prior to 2005.
  • Audi: A3, A4 manual transmissions produced before 2004.
  • Honda: Specific Civic and Accord manual transmissions (consult owner's manual; not for ATF-requiring units).
  • Toyota: Corolla and Camry manual transmissions from various model years.
  • Ford: Ranger and F-Series manual transmissions requiring equivalent specifications.
• Differentials: Suitable for both conventional and some limited slip differentials, provided OEM specification permits GL-4/GL-5 80W90. Always refer to your vehicle’s service manual for precise fluid type.
• General Vehicle Application: Versatile for passenger cars, light commercial vehicles, and some heavy-duty equipment where a robust 80W90 GL-4 or GL-5 lubricant is mandated for drivetrain components.

Key Performance Benefits

• Superior Wear Protection: Advanced extreme pressure additives create a robust protective film, safeguarding gears and bearings from scuffing and wear under severe operational loads and high contact pressures.
• Exceptional Thermal Stability: Maintains optimal viscosity and lubricant integrity across a broad temperature spectrum, preventing thermal breakdown and premature component degradation, ensuring consistent performance.
• Enhanced Corrosion and Rust Prevention: Formulated with specialized inhibitors that actively protect both ferrous and non-ferrous metal components from rust and corrosive attack, extending the operational lifespan.
• Reduced Gear Noise and Vibration: Contributes to smoother gear engagement and minimizes operational noise and vibrations, promoting a more refined driving experience and reducing mechanical stress.
• High Shear Stability: Engineered to resist viscosity loss under mechanical shear stress, guaranteeing a consistent protective lubricant film throughout the entire service interval, crucial for high-stress applications.
• Oxidation Resistance: Possesses excellent resistance to oxidation, prolonging fluid’s service life by inhibiting degradation and maintaining its lubricating properties over extended periods.
• Foaming Control: Contains anti-foam agents to prevent aeration, ensuring a continuous and stable lubricant film essential for proper gear protection and efficient heat transfer.
