Protector Series
 

Castrol Manual VMX 80W

A manual transmission fluid of advanced design especially developed to provide easier gear changes over a wide temperature range.

It is particularly versatile in cold weather as it reduces shift effort at start-up, as well as controlling transmission noise and idle rattle at operating temperatures.

Application

It should be used in manual transmissions of most car and light commercial vehicles (LCV’s) requiring GL-4 performance, where improved low temperature shift performance is required.

Features & Benefits

• Quieter transmission operation and easier low temperature gear shifting improves driving experience.
• Improved gear tooth and bearing durability reduces the risk of breakdown and extended component life.
• Effective lubrication over a wide temperature range.
• It can be used as a low drag gearbox oil in 2-stroke motorcycles with separate gearboxes.
