I couldn't get EP90 so used Comma EP80/90 in November. Think it was about £35 for 5l from my local factors. I was informed that EP90 is no longer made but I'm not so sure. I think Millers oils may do it. I also squeezed some Molyslip into my boxes & diffs for good measure.

I think you've spelled 'factors' wrongly, surely it should be '****ing robbing bastards'

Really? I looked at Castrol options in Halfrauds and thought that was cheap! .
edit: actually that may have been 7/8 litres as I bought enough to do both diffs, gearbox and tfr box. I still have a litre spare.
I got a 5 litre can and a couple or 3 smaller ones (kept refilling the smaller ones as i could squeeze it in to the g/box easily.)

Ep90 is widely available, it's what Ashcroft transmissions recommend.
And dare I mention the dreaded gl4 debate. Many are of the opinion that only gl4 oil should be used in the gearbox (and t/box?) because the modern stuff attacks phosfer bronze
