A "Lucas" product with an American Flag on the bottle...you Brits must be appalled! We sold our British heritage years ago Crowbar....we even have the Chinese owning part of our water supply industry! At least they haven't got their hands on Morgan!!!

Q8
Omega will also send to Kuwait But see my post, only oil don't take out all noise.
Think we all need to be patient till MMC comes with a real solution for our bevel box and bump steer. One day they need to come with a solution, because to my opinion, otherwise they let kill their chicken which lay the golden eggs.

Is it this 80w140 Or 80w90 Which is better for the bevel box? Because i intend to change the oil from time to time [url=[URL=http://s1349.photobucket.com/user/Q8morgan/media/image_zps83570434.jpg.html]  [/url]][/url]

You know, all this talk about special 'climbing oil' and such like, is all very well, but it won't help the gears to bed in, just like running an engine in on good quality synthetic oil, it will keep the metal surfaces apart, which, of course is brilliant when the parts are honed, but for getting things bedded in, a less efficient oil could be useful. Any thoughts from someone who knows?
Sorry Q8 to worry you even more.

Motul makes a huge range of oils and many have overlapping characteristics. The Motylgear range are highly technical synthetic oils and no doubt very good but they do not claim it reduces noise. I have had no experience of them. The Motul Gearbox http://www.motul.com/it/en/products/113 is a mineral oil that has a molybdenum bisulphide additive (as recommended for Guzzi bevel drives until recent models). All I can say is that it has worked very well in Guzzi gearboxes and bevel drives and has helped to reduce noise on older gearboxes. I have no idea as to its suitability on the M3W bevel drive and I note that there is also this http://www.motul.com/it/en/products/108 oil which is a modern synthetic gear oil that also claims to reduce noise. I would suggest you wait and see how your car is before you start to worry. You may have a fairly quiet bevel box
