Full Fluid Change. Fluid Suggestions.
I used used redline water wetter once and would never ever use it again. It doesn't last every long. I noticed no difference in coolant temps when I used it. In less than a year it turned to brown oil which I though was a blown head gasket and had a really hard time getting it all flushed out. There is also a mega thread on water wetter with people that had similar experiences to mine.
Well I changed my tranny fluid with OEM Super Diaqueen and unfortunately I'm still getting the infamous 5th gear grind on my EVO 9 with 16,000miles... should I try syncromesh or just try to get it warrantied?
i know this thread is a couple of years old but ill revive it anyway.
i did a search on fluids because i will be changing mine. i got my evo @ 26k miles. i already did an oil change using mobile 1 oil. next will be the tranny and diff.
mitsubishiparts.net carries the oem replacement but i dont know if i can get those locally. shops carry redline fluids here in vancouver though.
how are your evo's now? did you stay consistent using the saame fluids?

i have a question, it might be stupid, but i rather ask before doing something that might damage my car.
i wan to change all the fluids on my evo 9 mr and after reading a lot of threads, it seems like red line and amsoil are the best options.
i cant get amsoil here in mexico, so im looking to buy red line.
my question is: would it be ok to use the red line mix on the 6 speed tranny?
because right when i was about to buy it, i read the description and it says (5 speed cars only)

bump for good info... none of the original posters chimed in. As for oil, I'm using Mobil 1. I see everyone says 5 quarts for the EVO 8... I was told the IX only requires 4.5 quarts... can someone chime in and clarify this?
because of the oil cooler the car takes approximately 4.8 qts when completely drained
