92slowmaro- Take a long slow read through the following thread, it covers just about every option out there:

Which T56 fluid?

(Too bad this thread isn't a sticky...hint mods hint...)

Chucky are you still promoting this crap? Do you sell oil? Or repairs? Lets do the sticky for putting used synthetic motor oil in your trans. You get to put synthetic in your trans AND recycle at the same time.
Why not question what the manufacturer specifies . After all , you got a trans warranty from the guy that sold ya the mystical aqua super oil , right? Lets also have the whiner thread for all those that now feel REALLY SMART with the rebuild tab in hand for replacement synchronizer blocker rings and spalled bearings. I think there must be other equally useless threads for trans oil engineering 101 that you could link to.What is it Chucky, gotta have post count or ??

Redline D4 ATF, smoother shifting, quieter tranny, some have had the opposite effects though, your choice.
