Are GL4+ and GL4/GL5 gear oils really forbidden for a car with a transaxle that requires a GL3 oil according to the manufacturer? I was thinking of TOTAL TRANSMISSION GEAR 8 which is listed as a GL4 in Total's website, but I think as GL4+ on the bottle.
On the other hand MOTUL MOTYLGEAR which is a GL4/GL5 oil, and the one suggested by Motul for my car, says:
Quote:
Suitable for any type of seal and yellow material used in gearboxes design.
So what should I do? Avoid them or not?
