Can't find it in my factory workshop manual either but the parts book for '71 and '72 models does list the automatic gearbox with auxilaries,
so I'll have a look in my grand dad's workshop manual as mine is a '69 manual I believe and my grand dad's might be a later one..
Will let you know as soon as possible...

Even the my factory workshop manual doesn't mention the auto-box.

I've had a rummage on the web and found this http://roverp5.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=rover12&action=print&thread=1947 on the Rover P5B forum.

From what this says Ford ATF seems to be the favourite - and to avoid fluid with the Dexron additive as that doesn't work well with the original asbestos brake bands.

Hello Thomas, I've owner manual (67/74 Haynes) but nothing about automatic gearbox... the most important for me is to choose the good oil and take care of my gearbox... I know there are tunnings but it's me first automatic so .... learning before doing would be better....


PS /thanks for your mail...

I think you should look for a general service manual for the rapier which should cover the Borg Warner 35 gearbox.
