Tranny Fluid

[Mrhappytuzi]

Hey i was just wondering what you fellow S-H-O enthusiasts feel about the various forms of transaxle fluid out on the shelves.. I just changed mine today, (69,460mi) and just put in some Royal Purple.. So far i have only put a few miles on it, but i think it's really nice. I was just wondering what everyone else is running in their cars....

GM Sychromesh(HIS) and GM Synchromesh(HERS). Best stuff I've found yet. Tried Redline, Amsoil, Mobil 1 and didn't like either.

I've run Mobil1 ATF in both my cars and it seems to work just fine. It's also $5.88/quart at Walmart

Royal Purple ATX Fluid

Tried Royal Purple didn't seem to make enough difference to justify the cost IMHO.

Anything is going to feel better than the original dirty fluid.

well the stuff in my car didnt even look all that old... I just replaced it cuz i got it dirt cheap

I have GM synchromesh since i did my clutch job. I have 400 miles on it and love the smoothness. Definately better then what was in there before.

$10.41 per quart sucks tho...

ive heard synchromesh has terafin wax or something in it which isnt good for MTX applications... fine by me with it being over $10 a qt... mobil synthetic is what ill be using

Synchromesh is used in most of GM's MTX applications so i cant imagine that its that bad for the tranny. I noticed noticable differences right away as may others.
