Transmission Oil Change Comment

onzedge · 03-06-2011, 10:58 AM

I replaced the factory transmission oil with Redline MT-85 yesterday and wanted to share an initial observation. Shifting is dramatically smoother -- especially when the car is cold. If this is a redundant post, please forgive me and my search avoidance on a Sunday morning.

Although previous members have posted the same topic another positive review is always appreciated. How many bottles of the fluid did you end up having to use?

3 quarts exactly filled it to the bottom of the fill opening with the car perfectly level on a lift.

Like I said -- Sunday morning laziness kept me from my normal "search before I post" due diligence. Thanks, man.

Don't worry about the post police. I found the same shift feel improvement when I did mine last fall.
