IWSTI Addict since: Jan 2006 Trader Rating: (7) | i've hit the 30k about 2k miles ago, i feel that i can change out my tranny oils with no problem hah and dont really feel like paying $$ for labor for subaru or any other place to do this easy change. i have read the diy's and opinions on which oil to go with and came across a few thread saying some brand's dont go dont mix well with sti tranny being synthetic and all. jsc speed has a package deal thats around the 100 $$ mark. just wanted to get some info on someone's knowledge if anyone's ever used redline's oil. the sti runs great as the first day i picked her up, i just feel she desires to be refresh alittle like the manual says lol btw if not that brand is there anything else that would be great. thnx This ad is not endorsed by this member.

IWSTI Addict since: Jan 2001 Trader Rating: (0) | Personally, I would just stick with plain valvoline dino gear oil. I have, and with 34k miles my trans still shifts great in any temp. Even fresh dino oil will make a difference in the feel of the shifting, probably not like synthetic but after all I have read I would rather be safe than sorry and just stick with dino oil and change it more often. It's up to you though. |
