I'm not sure mate I will have to try that,what is it in the gearbox that makes this noise is it the difference or clutch pate or csc? Thanks for your help

modern run of the mill diesel cars make a bit of g/b noise. i wouldnt say clattering ther just not made to fine tolerance by shimming shafts bearings etc newer stuff takes allot thinner oil these days from the treacle that once was in them. new citroen m8 bought recent whine like fuk thats bran new. i cant hear yours just run it past some body in the no. make sure its got the right oil in it its a common mistake

Only thing I ever put in my cars is lucas low sulpar and ash 5/30 oil it's suppose to be better than regular oils bit not sure what would.you say
