need to know where I can get DiaQueen fluids

So I went to my local Mitsubishi dealer and after talking to the dip$hit at the counter, left completely frustrated because he didn't know what I was talking about and couldn't get me anything. I've searched the site, but I either I probably suck at searching or I can't find anything.

Just wondering if anyone knows of a good online site, or dealer site where I can get the Transfer case and rear diff fluid. Thanks in advance.

HAHAHAH this is soo funny. I had a similar issue when i was trying to get diaqueen. I called a dealership to make sure they had it in stock. I asked the parts counter person and i was informed that mistubishi didnt make any oil, nor did they sell any. I kept tellin the person they were wrong, they kept putting me on hold. FINALLY they said Ohhh mitsu does make/sell oils they just dont stock it at that mitsudealer. I called another dealership and that guy knew exactly what i needed and assured me it was in stock. STUPID *** DEALERSHIPS **** ME OFF ALSO! Good luck sir

No, Redline is not better than Super Diaqueen. Please only use the Super Diaqueen in the tcase and rear diff.

+1. just search and you'll find stories of t cases biting the dust when not using Diaqueen.

just call around to some other Mitsu dealerships, someone HAS to stock it. i went to 2 different CO dealerships before i found one that sold it off the shelf. one didn't know what i was talking about either and the other offered to order me a 5 gallon jug for like $500!

The Diaqueen stuff is like glue. The difference in consistency between straight 90 and 75w-90 is major. No reason to use anything other than the Diaqueen stuff.

i used redline fluids all around in my 03 8. 3 months later i had my t/c changed under warranty for a terrble howling and about 3-4 months after that my trans. had to be rebuilt under warranty for a 4th gear grind. before i used the redline i checked into it and found it met all certifications for our vehicles. I went back to the stock fluids after the rebuilds except the trans. which mitsubishi used BG syncroshift. I never had another problem after that with any driveline parts. IN my 06 BR350 IX#005 i use BG syncroshift, but havnt touched the t/c or rear diff. yet.( I only have 2900 miles). I hate to sound ignorant but i never heard of diaqueen thats why i asked if it was the stock fluid fot the t/c and diff.


Quick Reply: need to know where I can get DiaQueen fluids
