I'm trying to change the fluid in my tranny. Does anyone know what kind I use or what is recommended? Please help. Or if there is a write up. I found one but it was for a MR. I drive a 06 Evo. Base model.

 

You can use the MR fluid in your 5-Speed too no worries.

The popular choice on the boards is the Redline Cocktail

1 Qt Redline MTL
2 Qt Redline MT-90

I use Penzoil Syncromesh (All I'll ever use). I change it regularly though 8-10K

Some people use SHAMSOIL too (No thanks)

 

Well, according to that one thread only if you want to safely go down the 1/4 at 10.4 seconds.

 

I use Amsoil MTL in my 5-speed and liked it better than diaqueen and the redline cocktail

 

OEM or AMSOIL

 

I should probably mention is a DD. Never see a track.

 

I use amsoil but would not be opposed to others. As long as it meets or exceeds factory specs, it will be fine. All the same sh*t, but you'll have people tell you ones better then the other.

 

I use amsoil in mine.

 

I used amsoil in mine too, but just switched to redline to give it a try, both are good haven't had issuses with either

 

How many qts and what weight is our fluid?

 

2.9 Qts

75w-85/75w-90

 

Thanks you guys. Really appreciate it.

 

Every transmission seems to be slightly different I guess. I didn't care for the synchromesh or oem. I kept having really notchy shifting and the redline cocktail has been the only one that took care of that.

 

Yeah that hilarious ! How retarded of him to say

 

You did realize the joke was on SHAMSOIL right.

He mentioned that thread because of its lack of well. Any results at all
