30,000 miles is a long way, what is the fluid capacity of the 'box ?
I'm not a fan of extended mileage with manual gearbox fluid's regardless of fluid used as often there is minimal fluid volume, they run in a very hot environment, contaminants from the synchros load up fairly quickly and even premium fluids tend to shear, or at least beat the FM's to death.
I've had premium ester/PAO formulations develop baulky/crook shifting in 25,000km/12,000 miles in one application as it only holds 2.3 litres and is behind a turbo diesel hauling a big, heavy 2600kg 4WD.
