OEM auto fluid (oil) is Shell M-1375.4
Difficult to get, used by all cars with the 6HP26 varient gearbox (BMW, JAG, AUDI, etc) it is VERY expensive from a LR dealer at around £25 per LITRE 
Have it flushed (mega flush) much cheaper, and changes around 99% of the fluid, as oposed to a so called drain, flush and refill which will do around 47% 
Look up 'mega flush' in Google for info, or contact site sponser 4TECH Never get mad - get even !!
06 D3 now gone to family member and still going strong at 265k
previous vehicles:
04 D2 TD5 - (clocked 189k from new)
52 X-Trail 2.2 SVE
various euro boxes !

I did mine with millers oils dm atf, cured all vibration and smoother gear changes however important to change sump filter too. Oils cost about £40-00 for 10l.
