I have just replaced the front spring on the nearside (The offside one had broken so I thought it was best to replace both). Unfortunately the driveshaft popped out and the gearbox oil started to leak all over the drive, which I did not notice straight away. All now back together but I would like to top up the gearbox oil. Which grade is correct? The old oil smelt like EP90.

I need to get a manual for this van (Mk1 Multispace Forte 1.8 petrol) soon.

Hi GM,
My 1.4 uses 75W80 grade
Regards,
Griff

75-80

the manual for the mk1 doesnt cover the 1.8 engine, it covers everything else though, gearbox suspension etc.
