MT75 Ford specification oil ?
Bought some oil from Ford (yes, no comment lol), and found the oil specification has changed. Old one for the MT75 gearbox was : ESP-M2C166-H and the one I got is WSD-M2C200-C. As I do not want to break it, is there anyone here who used that later WSD spec oil ?
FINIS code for the new oil is : 1045737 and it says 75W-90 BO on it.

Ford have changed their specifications to 75w90 oil. I can only guess that it is to avoid having to purchase specific (large) quantities of MT-grade oil.
Bit like when they decided that everything can run on 5w30 engine oil (including cars that were originally designed for 15w40).
In my 4be, I just use AQF 3 oil which works fine. Gives better gearchanges (especially when cold) over Comma MT75 oil. Also, I do full gear oil changes every 10k and it always comes out nice and red
