Default Transmission oil options for 911E

I am having a bit of a problem locating locally 90 SAE gear oil as called for in the manual.

Are there any options? Is 80W-90 sufficient ? What does hyploid mean?

Please advise.


Thank you.

The easiest SAE 90 oil to find would be Honda Motorcycle/Marine SAE 90 gear oil. The car dealers don't usually have it (or even know about it), but the bike and boat dealers should have it.

As to what hypoid means, click on this link... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypoid#Hypoid_Gears
