Factory Transmission Oil Fill - UOA
I was curious what the viscosity of the factory transmission (6MT) oil fill was so I sent a sample in to Blackstone for a UOA. The findings were interesting, the viscosity @100C of the factory fill after ~13,700km is similar to the Redline MTL I replaced it with.
I did a search for other transmission oil UOA's and came up with @Dezoris 's thread [ http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=45452 ] which had a couple of UOA's on other oils. If I missed any please post them up in here. |

Got 22K on the stock fluids. I get some grind when its cold, but man when the car gets warm and I shift in the 4-7K range its buttery smooth.

I'm about to 17K miles. The transmission gets smoother with each passing mile. It does need to warm up however; not unexpected in the frigid Northeast.
