Recommendation and sharing
Hi
So after ive tried several oils on our trans i think ive discovered one of the best if not best oil for our trans(for smoothness-maybe less for protection). im using this oil for 3years now in other cars and i brought my previous exp with this oil to this car and its definitely fits in!*ELF NFP 75W80* -All cold issues are gone. -2 to 3 gear mini grind/klunk plunk/stair/how ever anyone call it  issue still there but has an 50% improvement and im pretty much sure once the oil will break in more it will get better.-generaly much more smoothy shifting. so if ur about to change oil soon im definitely recommending this one . *i will drain it after 2000miles and check for shavings.(OE and motul 300 had many of them) *tested in ambient temp of 16F to 47F.
