I've an Indigo (TDI) which has 1.4 Lac Kilometers on the oDo. Yesterday, I changed the gear oil, brake fluid and Power steering fluid.
The manual mentions of changing the gear oil after 20,000 kilometers. However, since I had not changed it in over 2 years, I thought it would be better to change. Manual states HPCL EP 80 and Castrol Extreme Pressure 80 as recommended gear oil.
I bought and put Shell Spirax S2 G 90. Today I had difficulty in engaging 2nd gear from 1st. I did not have any gear slotting issues before this oil change.
What could be the reason? Did I make a mistake in choosing gear oil?
