Halfords said, see Texaco, I explained that it was probably US > texaco, not UK, so I bought the Slick 50 instead (says works with all > racks). Seems to have been OK for about 3 weeks so far.

I'll stick with Castrol TQ-F - my racks haven't failed yet :) Paul 1989 900 Turbo S http://saab.go.dyndns.org/
