Frozen out! tips?
Seeing as the BMW needs more loving than a badger on heat, I'm using the mr2 to get to work this week. But, with the first frost this morning I was frozen out! Any tips guys? Do you rub the rubber with fairy liquid or similar to stop the glass freezing to it? I was lucky this morning the passenger s...

This was from spring this year. Since then prices have gone up......down south at least. Rev 1/2 doggy ones ma...

Really? So there's more additives in the oil that's no good for it? ![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)

Re: where do you all get your gear oil from?
MT90 is touted by a few people and is the wrong stuff.

When mine was replaced at Pacific Works the MT90 came out
(previous owner) and the right spec Comma oil was replaced.![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)

Re: turbo - castrol GTX 10w/40 users?
Cool - But my main question was for the rear ester geeks among us - the actual quality of the oil GTX vs Magnantec - is it bad? Has anyone else used it? I mean, to be honest I'm flapping about nothing. Halfords oil is just Comma - and lots of people use that. I change it v regulary with genuine Mr T...
