This is from VW for shifter linkage: https://www.skoda-parts.com/spare-part/g052142a2-polyurea-grease-22086.html
£50 for a tube of grease.
Really dont want to fork out £50 for this. Is there something similar I could use that's a lot cheaper?
This seems like it might have similar characteristics: https://www.opieoils.co.uk/p-90041-mobil-polyrex-em-electric-motor-roller-bearing-grease.aspx

valvoline vv986 should be fine.
If this is for occasional greasing of a ball joint or two, can't you stick your head into a workshop you know and ask for a dollop of some grease?0 -
Thanks for the suggestion, i might be taking a risk here but I ordered this unlabelled pot. I only need a tiny amount, about 6 pea sized.
