I have a Tesla front SDU part number 1035000-00-F. It has no oil in it, so I need to buy some.
The only information I can find online states: Front drive unit part number 1035000-00-F and earlier: Mobil SHC 629
Unfortunately, I can't buy Mobil SHC 629 in the UK (at least in sane quantities). Would anyone be able to recommend alternatives?
My research into SHC 629 suggests that it's a fully synthetic industrial gear oil, ISO 150 with "EP" additives. I found this product, which appears to be the same grade: https://www.smithandallan.com/documents/PRODUCT INFO Indisyn Gear Oils.pdf [EDIT, THIS IS NOT THE CORRECT OIL, SEE POST BELOW FOR CORRECT OIL]
Would this be suitable? Are there any particular properties of SHC 629 that I need to be careful to match, or is there anything else in particular that people use for this gearbox?
Thanks!
