Yo was up everybody, i need to know how much transmission fluid i need bc im getting ready to drain the old fluid and put fresh fluid in it and what is the brand that i need and would it better to go to the dealer or to like advance or auto zone?

 

3qts Amsoil MTG

 

ok then, i still have my stock tranny

 

you should still get the 3 quarts of amsoil.. you wont be disappointed

 

let me know if we can help with any tranny needs, or diffs or engine.

no you wont be disapointed.

 

Do you need large allen wrench to loosen transmission fill and drain plug?

 

yes iirc its a 10mm

 

Thats for the 6 speed only. The 5 speed uses a regular 6 point socket. 17 for the fill and 24 for the drain.

 

Thanks I got 6 speed.

 

sorry to bump an old thread, but I tried putting in 3qts in my tranny and I wasn't able to get all of it in there. The car was level on 4 jackstands and I have about 1/2" left in the bottom of the AMSOIL quart container... Is that alright?

 

Yes, the 5-speed won't take all of the 3rd qt.

 

perfect, thanks.

 

Good bump, saved me some searching time. Just ordered 3qts of Amsoil Manual Transmission & Transaxle Gear Lube 75W-90.

 

it's truely 2.9qts, but I think alot of people just say 3qts to make it easy, but you should have a little bit left over obviously. Just keep the car level and fill until it starts coming back out of the fill hole

 

Outdated thread but if anyone ever looks... 3 Qts, stick with the stock DiaQueen. I've heard good things about Amsoil as well, but with every car I stay with the OEM fluid or the OEM Synthetic fluid. Have always had the best results when using stock fluid in both the Evo and Subarus.
