If anyone needs the CVT oil, let me know because I'm importing some myself and I'll just add yours into my shipment. You have make a decision and pay by Monday at the latest as the shipment leaves soon and I don't want to miss the boat so to speak.

Just PM me if you're interested and I'll tell you the rest of the details.

Hi mate, you're in luck :(

The shipment I ordered from Japan will be here in about a month, with which I was planning to do my oil change with.

Recently though, the gearbox played up and some error codes came up when using the Consult-II tool, basically it was indicating that the speed sensors were returning an error. It would be easy to assume that the speed sensors need replacing, however the CVT experts I spoke to disagreed. It seems that when the oil ages and loses its integrity, it doesn't provide sufficient friction between the rollers which causes them to slip at random intervals, especially when it heats up after a long drive on the highway. This in turn sends fluctuating signals to the speed sensors which causes them to log an error.

In light of that fact, the dealership we bought the car from is taking responsibility for this issue as the car is still under dealer warranty. Therefore they are ordering oil in a.s.a.p. and getting a workshop to change it over which will leave me with the 8 litres (2x4 litre cans) I ordered myself, sitting around collecting dust.

If you decide you want this, just PM me and we'll sort out the finer details, thanks mate.
