T5R gearbox seal change. need advice on gearbox oil
going to get my drive shaft seals done and will get the gearbox oil changed at the same time.
Volvo have discontinued the correct oil and now suggest some watery stuff. any ideas what i can use that will perform the same. i think my box is an old type with some brass bits in it which dont like GL5? original oil was apparently Volvo 97308.

There are multiple suppliers of Volvo 97308 equivalent online from reputable companies and brands. Just search Volvo 97308.
