I'm preparing for a trip to South Carolina about 850 miles each way. I've changed the engine oil, greased all the zerks and now its the turn of the transmission. Not sure what oil to use, all the oils listed in the manual aren't available in Canada. Help would be greatly appreciated.

If you have the R380 box it's MTF94 although I used Comma AQF M2C-33F/G to the same spec as per the You Tube which will identify the box for you if you are not sure. It also provides several different manufacturers oils. Mine didn't have an inspection hole in the tunnel so I did it from underneath with a syringe and it worked ok 2.9Ltrs needed. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8PhpKFNZLy8And another covering both boxes oil types. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WEXd4J3tq-kThat sounds like one nice road trip - pictures always appreciated here.

Yep used the MTF 94 in my R380 box but just over 2 litres as I was told... Couldn't put more in as it was coming out the top up hole..it's tricky to get the filler plug out as its close to the chasis so resulted in a square 55 bit and a spanner..

Do you have a Land Rover dealer nearby?
They should be able to provide an equivalent to MTF94.
