Crap! I’ve put the standard stuff in as it was 10w 30 and the expert is a 10w 40….. Wasn’t too sure if the expert was on or not as the manual stated 10w 30. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

As the title says what are the uk lads using for transmission oil as a lot of the ones recommended on here aren’t as easy to source I’ve found? I’ve just changed to Motul Transoil Mineral 10w-30. The manual for my 2008 EC 250 says 10w30 also but everyone else on here uses all sorts of weird and...

Thank you. Read a lot of ATF being run by many people. So no ill affects whatsoever with 100% ATF oil? Any specific ATF you use? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I know it’s been asked many times but looking for confirmation. I’m from the uk and have a 2008 EC250. The manual calls for 10w30 transmission oil. Doesn’t say synthetic or mineral etc etc. Can car engine oil be used or 4t oil. Or is this 10w30 grade different to transmission oil. Just...

Can someone please confirm the standard exhaust on the 2007-2009 250’s are nickel plated steel please, or am I misinformed? Have a small leak on the exhaust where the frame bracket attaches and was thinking of purchasing a welder to fix myself. Thank you Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
