Bot 402 - 75W85

• Castrol BOT 402 is a fully synthetic SAE 75W-85 manual transmission fluid.

• Castrol BOT 402 can be recommended for most manual transmissions where API GL-4 lubricants are required.

• Castrol BOT 402 meets Opel’s requirements for use in the manual transmission of all front wheel drive (FWD) and rear wheel drive (RWD) passenger cars worldwide.

BENEFITS:

• Smoother and easier gear shift due to a combination of reduced shifting forces and optimal synchronisation.
• Reduced torque loss increases efficiency over all transmission load ranges.
• Increased wear protection of synchronizer and bearings during startup phase.
• Fuel saving potential – less fuel consumption means lower emissions.
• Improved shift comfort and prevention of “synchroniser clash†during gear change at a wide range of ambient temperatures and operating conditions.
• Extended synchroniser life reduces warranty and maintenance costs.
• Optimal lubrication of transmission components enhances performance and life.
• Maintains noise reduction (eg : in-gear rattle; idling rattle), improved driver satisfaction.
• Excellent transmission cleanliness and longer oil life permit decreased servicing.
• Longer oil and component life permit extended drain and decreased servicing.
• Helps protect surface of moving parts, extending transmission life.
• Helps avoid oil leakages, reducing repair costs.
• Better environmental compatibility – easier waste oil disposal and recyclability.

FEATURES:

• Excellent cold flow properties combined with balanced frictional characteristics.
• Excellent synchroniser performance and maintained frictional properties during lifetime.
• High shear stability.
• Excellent thermal and oxidative stability.
• Temperature reduction through reduced friction.
• Good anti-pitting behaviour
• Good seal compatibility.
• Free from chlorine and heavy metals.

SPECIFICATIONS AND APPROVALS:
