A few american forums I've read recommended to use redline d4, costs $90 for 4l which sounds a lot better than a couple hundred. Rollover noise is ridiculous my car with the light clutch and solid plates - have started to get used to it but if I can get rid of it I will.

The rollover rattle in the t56 ... Have played around with idle speeds in the tune but no luck. Went up/down in the 600 to 900 as a range and got a fair compromise a while back but it is not great. With the aircon on and a MW3+ clutch, the rattle is there. and.... it was there witht stock clutch as well.

keen to hear your results.

Just done it... Managed to get 5 Litres in to the Gearbox by jacking the left side up so the Car is at an angle ( 2 Stands used) !!

Took it for a run... Happy with Gear-Change and Roll-Over noise.

The Oil ( Penrite 70W-75 ) looks like Olive Oil.

Only Tool needed is a 3/8" T-Bar, or Heavy Duty 3/8" Ratchet to undo Drain/ Filler Plug.

Good result!

Did you fill it via the reverse switch?

NO ! ...jacking the left side up so the Car is at an angle ! Both left Wheels ( N/S) off the ground ( 2 Stands used) By having the Car at an angle you can use the filler plug on the left side (N/S) to fill the Gearbox.

No need to remove the Reverse Switch !!
