Hi guys,
I have noticed a crunching sound coming from the gearbox of my Navara when I take off in 1st gear. It doesn't always happen say 1 in 20 take offs. Seems to be a little more noticeable when an a hill or a slight slope.
I spoke to my dad who owns a D22 and having a similar issue as me and he said a Nissan dealer in Adelaide who he gets his car serviced through told him to put in Castrol VMX 80 in the gearbox and Castrol LSX 90 in the diff.
Can anyone shed some light on what the problem might be and if changing to these oils may fix the problem I am having with the gearbox?
Cheers
Martin
