Any transmission oil will work well at the start, and at nominal temperatures and under nominal load.
The differences are the performance under extremes of temperature and load, and long term.
So replace the specified transmission oil with any old oil and you can probably drive OK for 6 months at normal UK temperatures.
But what will it be like in 1 year? 2 years? 5 years? 10 years?
At really cold temperatures?
At really hot temperatures?
THAT is when the right oil really makes a difference.
