    Anyone know if you can use 5w20 in your gearbox? Any issues? Found a big jug of it in the garage. I usually just use 10w40 and change often.

    Yeah. I just wondering if I can use this jug of 5/20 since it won't get used in my car.

    Make sure it's suitable for wet clutches and stick it in.

    I had a chance to look last night. Didn't see that rating, so I just went and bought some 10/40. Thanks!
