Do you guys have the F40 or M32 gearbox?
I guess F40 since you both got a 2 liter

I changed the oil in my M32 gearbox at 60K miles and it still looked like new.
Replaced the oïl with Fuchs Sintofluid but don't experience any real différences. If anything it's a bit harder to change gears when it's cold. But this disappears when the car warms up.

I'm a bit affraid to put in a short shifter because I think it will make shifting when the car is cold even harder.
