Welcome. :D

TXB still needs the proper GM oil. It comes in a one-shot bottle with the right amount in it, and you have to fill it through the breather pipe with a funnel (unless you fill it off the car before fitting!).

Gearbox can either use the recommended GM stuff or I use Castrol SMX-S. Any decent synthetic gearbox fliud will do though.
