During my last PMS, casa used 10 liters EP-90 for all oil replaced. I'm assuming this is SAE 90 which should have been for the differential oil only. I checked w/ Motul and RP, and they have these different viscosities. Will drop by local dealer of Mitsubishi products to check on this EP-90.
Update lang regarding my manual transmission. Last week, I changed my manual transmission oil and transfer oil using RP Max-Gear SAE 75w-90. Before, I have difficulty getting into 2nd gear early in the AM. Sometimes, from 1st gear, I skip to 3rd gear para lang maipasok at umarangkada. Now, smooth na pasok sa 2nd gear, tapos smoother, quicker ang shifting.
I'm just wondering why my casa did not follow the recommended viscosity as stated in the manual. Which makes me want to ask sir Dadz kung puede nya itanong dyan sa MMTh kung ano gamit nila na gear oil before sending out the units to the Phils.
Sa mga mag-30k PMS, better check out kung tama ang gear oil na nilalagay ng casa.
Sir Ian, may inside info ka ba regarding this issue?
