Hi Guys,
I have a 2015 WRX with 85K on the ODO, the transmission prior to the new 75w90 fluid was perfect; it shifted perfect, never grinded a gear, syncros were always smooth! My car drove like it was brand new!
A week ago, I choose to replace the factory gear oil with Redline 75w90NS and now I feel it is also harder to shift into gear, kind of like a notchy feeling as the shifter slides into gear... This happens when the car is cold. Once it warms up it drives pretty good.
I am now looking to ditch the Redline 75w90NS, but I am stuck on what I oil I should use... Centaur Subaru no longer offers Subaru 75w90 in 1-5 liter containers and they want something like $280.00 to replace the transmission oil...
What is everyone's preference for GL-5 gear oil that does not contain limited slip? Anyone try Mobil1 Delvac 75w90?
Thanks,
Rolland
