Erik....
I cannot find this fluid on any of Castrol's websites.. You state it is a GL-4 which is absolutely necessary for the EVO Trans. Could you verify the GL-4 Rating.
And so everyone knows, that GL-3 they are calling for in the X is an antiquated rating that they are trying to use to make you come back to the Stealership to buy overpriced fluid.
If this Castrol fluid is a GL-4 it can be used as can the AMSOIL MTG although MTF would be necessary if you are worried about warranty.

I had to deal with a number of people before I could source this stuff. Not everyone knew where to find it.
I also don't think I'd have 96,000+ miles on my transmission if it weren't GL-4
Let me know if that helps.

The rear Diff uses 75W-90 and takes just over a pint.
The Transfer Case uses the same fluid... 2 Qts will do both.
AMSOIL SVG 75W-90 is a great lube.
Most other lubes do not even pass the tests required.
