Hey guys,

About a month and a half ago I went to a local performance shop to swap out the factory fill of trans and diff fluid for something a bit better (at about 18k kms).

I know that many in the community use Motul Gear 300, so when my mechanic recommended Gear Competition I really didn't think twice about it. He said its his go to recommendation for Subaru's (WRX's, STI's BRZ's and FRSes) and has used it many times in the past so I trusted his word.

Now upon doing more research about it, I am getting worried that I may be doing harm to my trans/diff. Should I flush and fill with a 75W-90?
