Thanks for the video. I am still a little confused by the colour of the oil, can you link to, or upload a picture of the container that it came in please? Or do you have any details about the stuff supplied?

The gearboxes can, and often do, over 100k before an oil change.

I changed the oil with this one... https://www.halfords.com/motoring/engine ... 80-gl-4-1l

Besides, I'm not sure what it has to do with that as the noise was there long before changing the oil.

What do you think of the sound? Any ideas?
