  • 3rd Gen Taco Manual

2020 Tacoma shifting smooth and did this 2 months ago and about 1000 miles. Would buy again

  • Gold Standard for NV5600 Dodge 6 speeds (not G56).
Size: 1 Gallon (128 Ounces)
I’ve tried Pennzoil Synchromesh and Amsoil Synchromesh but Redline MTL is the gold standard. 6 quarts through the tower (without coolers) works great for brass or lined synchros.

  • Cured serious shifting issues in my Mazdaspeed3
Size: 1 Gallon (128 Ounces)
(PLEASE NOTE: old oil shown in photo is the old genuine Mazda fluid! It is NOT used Redline oil.) I used it in my 2010 Mazdaspeed3 with around 75,000 original miles. I changed it myself, shops in the area didn't want to bother with it. The original trans oil had never been changed (quite simply because, Mazda claims the original factory fluid is a "lifetime" fluid, which it is obviously NOT), and came out of the car looking dark as cocacola, and thick as (real) maple syrup. Whereas this new liquid is transparent, with the slightest hint of red, and flows quite a bit easier than the old, nasty black fluid. Before I changed it, I was having serious issues getting stuck shifting into 1st and 2nd (the shifter often wouldn't want to move all the way into gear). It was so bad that I was considering getting rid of the car. But this new oil fixed it 100%. With the old oil I also had an issue with 2nd gear going in with a crunch (worn synchro probably?), this oil didn't completely eliminate that crunch but it reduced it a lot, and now it goes away completely when the car is fully warmed up. I still can't believe Mazda doesn't have a service interval for changing the transmission fluid in the speed3. This fluid absolutely needs to be changed. As for how to change it in the Mazdaspeed3: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yWMk_Q1pE8c Tip: If you can manage to find a funnel long enough, or extend the one you have, then you won't need to remove the airbox. I extended mine with a plastic water hose. ... show more

  • The best manual transmission fluid that I have used.
Size: 1 Gallon (128 Ounces)
My transaxle shifted much more smoothly after I switched to this transmission fluid. The synchros also seemed to respond quicker.

  • Redline MTL for the NSG370 2005 Jeep TJ Wrangler 6 Speed
Size: 1 Gallon (128 Ounces)
I have a 2005 TJ and 2008 JK with the 6 speed Manual NSG370. I didn’t realize the previous owner put in GL5 ( I suspect) on the 2005. I got MTL in too late, but it still extended the life of the transmission. I got it rebuilt on the 05 and MTL which is GL4 gear oil works with the synchros on this transmission. You HAVE to take care of your fluids. If anyone says “leave old fluid in” I would be hesitant to take their advice. Transmissions are machines, they have gears etc, and the metal needs this gear oil to lubricate and avoid unnecessary wear or damage. If you take out oil gear oil and put in new gear oil, it should only be better. If you changed the fluid and had a failure, that’s failure was coming wether you like it or not. It’s not my opinion, I frankly don’t care if someone leaves their oil in and smokes their transmission, that’s up to them, free country, I’m just warning to think about the logic behind “leave old broken down fluid in your transmission “ advice if you are not experienced, illogical advice can get through. ... show more
