There were many variations of the T5 internals, even as supplied to ford for the cossie, so I'd stick with the closest stuff to the original, the TQ-D, unless you have serious wear.

Yes, its the same stuff i put in last time. Do you know if the Forte gear treatment is ok to add to this?. Just looking for an additive to try and get the box a bit quieter.
