Castrol 80/90 is the best you will get. Buy yourself an 17mm hex socket so you can un do the drain plugs and refill plug.
You will also need a syringe from an auto store so you can refill the gearbox.
Jack up the rear so you can get underneath and the also jack up the front of car so its level then refil the oil in the gearbox until it runs outt he
filler hole and its all done.
