So does everybody agree that the 75w-140 BG stuff = bad in the manual transaxl?


And does everybody agree that that SAE 90 is the right stuff to use in the rear differential and the transfer case? Before I go out there and put the wrong fluid in then end up needing warranty work lol

sweet, may go see if they have some of that today, and put it in when I get a free chance. Thanks man! I have Redline 75w90 in the rear and x-fer case right now and Pennzoil in the tranny.

Looks like I'm going to use that SAE 90 in the rear diff and transfer case and go back to the dealer and trade that BG in for the right stuff for the manual transaxle. Bastards, makin me drive an hour. They should give me a tank of gas lol

well, thanks man...i took that part number to a mitsu dealer on the way home from work, and BAM they had one jug in stock. I grabbed it up. its a 4 liter jug, so i dont know how many times we will get out of it, but i paid 46$ and tax, so it came to 50$ even.

Will be replacing the Redline 75w90 that i put in the x-fer case and diff.

Glad to hear the above. I'd hate to hear a horror story of another dead T-Case due to improper fluids.
