Comma has announced the launch of two new gear and transmission fluids, taking the range total to 18 grades. The addition of the two new products expands Comma’s coverage of the vehicle parc by more than a third.

New Comma MVMTF 75W-90 synchronised manual transmission and transaxle fluid is a fully synthetic product suitable for more than 3.8 million vehicles including Ford, VW, Skoda, SEAT, Audi, Mazda and Jaguar, manufactured between 1986 - 2008 and representing circa 15% of all cars in the UK fitted with a manual transmission.

New Comma AQ134 is a high performance, fully synthetic automatic transmission fluid developed specifically for 7-speed gearboxes in vehicles using Mercedes Benz gearbox type NAG2, number 722.9. Fully compatible with the manufacturer’s MB 236.14 OEM requirement, it is suitable for more than 250,000 vehicles on the road requiring this specification. It is also fully retro-compatible with the MB 236.10 and MB 236.12 specifications recommended for many 5 speed Mercedes Benz models.

Mike Bewsey, Comma Sales & Marketing Director commented: “The addition of these two new products significantly expands the vehicle parc coverage of the Comma range. Our research with technicians tells us that they often resort to going back to the main dealer for gear and transmission fluids, apart from being expensive, it’s a huge inconvenience for them and a sale lost for a factor. It’s a real benefit to the independent aftermarket to have this technology available through the factor channel.”

In common with all Comma engine oil, transmission fluid, coolant and brake fluid the two new products come with a full set of application recommendations and are covered by Comma’s 100% Quality and Performance Guarantee.

New Comma MVMTF 75W-90 is supplied in both 1 litre and 5 litre packs (Comma product codes MVMTF1L & MVMTF5L). New Comma AQ134 is supplied in 1 litre packs (Comma product code AQ1341L). Comma has introduced the products in these pack sizes according to the most likely servicing requirements and quantities.

Full product information and complete application data for Comma MVMTF 75W-90 and Comma AQ134 is provided for distributors in two new, comprehensive 12 page brochures. Naturally, recommendations for both products are included with the registration number plate look-up facility at www.Commaoil.Com and on Allicat, Autocat+ and MasterCat.
