That's interesting, and seems to jibe with the somewhat common claim that since Motul is a GL-5 fluid it's incompatible with brass synchros, despite Motul's claim of a GL-4/GL-5 rating and peoples' experience of it. How long did you use the Motul and how long until problems started and the transmission failed?
