edge Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 There are ALOT of good and even better alternatives as already discussed a million times on here. Or just give oilman OPIE OILS a call and he will sort you out. I'd be dammed if i would have to pay out the price for the old crappy v160 atf oil when the newer stuff will do a far better job of looking after your cherished 6 speeds.

edge Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 where do you get the v160 these days?? cant find it on opieoils He wont sell it as i think his last words to me were similar to my post above. Other traders here will get it for you but as its no longer made you pay a premium for it. Just a short list The bmw stuff is good, just into a bmw garage and say you have a 2001 M5 or similar and want gearbox oil for it. Or do a search for royal purple plus many more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteveC Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 As I recall, Paul Whiffin has the original Toyota stuff in stock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Whiffin Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 As I recall, Paul Whiffin has the original Toyota stuff in stock. Yes I do, plenty of it, I have to import it from Japan so it costs a bit but it is the correct oil for your box. We use it in all our race cars and never had one gearbox problem ever.
