SX-A Gear Oil Question

[clearbluewater]

VP gear oil is not available in my area, online is super expensive. Looks to be asking for 75w90.

What other brands are acceptable and possibly more budget friendly.

If anyone has used any house Canadian brands for example like Canadian Tire please also share.

Thanks

Any full synthetic gear oil with a API GL-5 (most of them are ) rating will do . Just pick a known brand thats handy to your location . None of it is cheap . Being as how Volvo recommend full synthetic oil Id stick with that . You can get cheaper mineral and semi synth oils but I wouldnt . And you will need nearly 3 litres so $$$
