I'm gonna need to change my tranny fluid soon. Just wondering what you all are using, and why. How do you like it?

 

i switched to redline a few months back hoping that it would improve cold winter starts when going to work. but i see absolutely no difference between this winter and the last. stick with nissan grade... i don't think anything else is going to improve anything... and then u have the added fright of something possibly going wrong.

 

BP you got PM.

 

Thanks. Anymore input?

 

I put this http://www.redlineoil.com/products_g...61&subcatID=20 in my FJR1300 and K1200LTC rear drives. Nice and smooth and quiet. After 5000 miles checked the magnetic plug. Nada, nothing, zippo. Virtually no evidence of metal/metal contact. This is for the diff only. For the tranny, you should use the MTL since it is more suited for the synchro engagement.

 

You use the LightWeight ShockProof, the one in the blue bottle, for the differential?

And in the tranny you used MTL? How come not MT-90?

 

Ttt

 

Im trying to figure out what to put in too. Im about to do an oil change, tranny fluid, and if I go wit SS brake lines brake fluid change. But I was wondering the same thing, whats the best tranny fluid? Also how many quarts does our car take?

 

Motul. I find that one to be the best. Just my opinion

 

I use ATE Super Blue brake fluid, good stuff!

What kinda Motul oils did you use?

 

No one else has reached 30k yet?

 

Amsoils 75w90 I believe is what I just got put in this weekend. Much better!

 

Yes. Light Shockproof (70W/80) in the diff. and MTL in the trans. Great protection and lighter viscosity for improved power transfer and mileage. You could use the MT-90, it is just thicker. If you live in the inferno of the Southwest, MT-90 might be a better choice.

 

MTL and MT90 do not meet the specs for the 6mt tranny in the G35. It is not recommended especially on the 350z forum. Many people had issues with that. So they had to mix them to make it right. Mixing isn't good. Amsoil now makes the proper lube for our tranny.

 

What the diffrence?
