[QUOTE="jaleeks23, post: 373074, member: 8431"] Gearbox oil for E39 shud be "gold/clear"' colour oil....Did you just service/change power-steering related stuff, maybe a bottle of the power-steering fluid was accidentally left in the engine bay and spilt/splattered inside the bay as car was moving, but bottle fell off after awhile since oil already emptied from the bottle? Can't recall any other "red oil" besides the power-steering. K&N oil - this is red, applied to K&N air filter...again, unless accidentally left in the engine bay... [/QUOTE]
