Default Autobox fluid

Used this for my autobox oil change, big saving on other makes.

Also at the same price is THIS. The Westway doesnt post to Northern Ireland, but the Smith and Allen does (which is how I got it lol), so if you live in the country, but are discriminated against, because you live in a nicer area, , Smith and Allen may be an alternative.

I am around 12-14 months myself, it was once recommended here and had to get it once my 2/4 solenoid failed. Living in NI, I am always hamstrung when it comes to have things delivered, particularly paints and oils, and I imagine some parts of the Highlands and islands would have similar issues with the Westway stuff, so just offering an alternative.

It's nice to know there are alternatives to the OEM super expensive stuff that does the job

I’m pretty sure it was rimmer bros that posted the super expensive (auto gearbox oil) to me, a few years back when it was needed.
Nice to see an alternative👍👍😅😅
