keep it fair for yourself , dont try and harm anyone or badmouth, i understand people have opinions in some cases negative but try and be somewhat politically correct i guess.

If you have negative expirience we welcome any oil analysis or testing you may have done to disproove the product, mayority wont have data i understand.

thanks

Is there an updated recommendation for the rear diff yet? I'm still running the SVG, but it's no longer recommended in the catalog and it didn't look happy when I drained it last. I'd love to know what Amsoil has as a replacement.

And I just topped off my 6-speed with it's 3rd serving of MTG two days ago. It was a clean and bright as the day I put it in when drained with over 10k on it. Barely anything on the plug ... a tiny dot of gray and that's all. Much better than the OE fluid, but to be fair that had the break in miles on it.

I'm using Amsoil for engine oil, transmission, and brake fluid and I've been very happy with all three. I've definitely noticed a big difference with the engine oil and brake fluid compared to the Mobil1 and ATE super blue that I was using before.

W2J, that's what I use, but haven't had luck with the rear diff and the SVG. The TC loves it though and my 6-speed is also fine with the MTG 75W-90, even though it's not officially recommended anymore.
