Wondered the same thing as to using the GL-5. Redline has a 75/90 that is a GL-4...........GL-5 is supposedly not friendly to brass blocking rings.
The Shockproof seems to not have any GL ratings that I could find on their site in the tech. info. section. Does the bottle have anything on it? |

Made a mistake on the other post. This cocktail was suggested for me to try by many subaru enthusiast since it is popular on the 5 speeds to fix synchro issues. In my case it fixed the similar problem that many people have with the wrx. |

So my question is this: Should i go with motul or redline since i live in phoenix? The reason i bring in phx into the picture is because it is so effing hot here (maxed out around 110-120 Fahrenheit (43-49 C)). Which viscosity or brand is better for hotter weather? Also, if i change the tranny and differential fluid, will i need to buy these washers? Anything else (specific) i will need to change the tranny and differential? This will be my first time changing these fluids on a car. Last edited by Daedex; 07-12-2014 at 12:54 PM. |

"lifetime fluid" I believe, which usually means it is a good idea to change out right after the warranty period ends on a street driven car.

I totally agree though that one should change both as a maintenance item. |
