New Gearbox oil specified for Renaultsport - time to change
Posted: Fri Apr 18, 2014 5:42 pm
Hi guys! This is to let you know that a new oil is now specified for Renaultsport gearboxes (PK4...). This new oil is thin synthetic with potassium borate nanotechnology. It reduces friction considerably, which leads to more power at the wheels. If someone doesn't know, gearbox losses are 15-20% of the engine power. Cut a few % from here, and this will equate to quite a few horse forces at the wheels!
The oil in question is Tranself-nfp-75w80, which replaces TRX. It is suitable for RS-Cup LSD as well. The nanotechnology spec appeared only in 2011. If your car is older, then change the oil!
How do you think RS250 became RS265? If only they chose to use Miller's nanotechnology engine oil, then it would have become RS270!
