They are being naughtly. Showing a picture of a branded item and then in small print, stating its unbranded rock oil.

It's the same for the transfer box oil.

You can get 2 bottles of the correct stuff on ebay for £29 I think.

Considering how often it's changed, you may as well put genuine stuff in.

I ended up doing 100 mile round trip and just bought all from main dealer.. Yes very naughty, I nearly fell for it but something was telling me to go bk and read again just before I was about to make payment.

I am sure Trading Standards wouldn't take to kindly to their advertising of this product. Some may not know what rock oil is thinking it is the same thing. That photo of Castrol just shouldn't be shown in that advert, a very dirty tricks advertisement.

Again it just proves paying slightly more, and getting the genuine article, is often the best solution. Thumbs Up John
