Switch my tranny oil to AMSOIL.
I just switched my tranny fluid today to AMSOIL MTF (thx to apagan01 for the oil, it did get here a little late but he's definately made up for that with better pricing. It's a very easy job and Hollywood X's how to helped my get prepare just the right tools before starting (His how to can be found on Evoxforums in the tranny section). I had ordered a manual pump with my oil so I was able to avoid removing the whole airbox which suggests doing on the how to. Like everyone else my drain plug was filled with shavings and it appears that the plug itself is magnetic in order to attract these shavings and prevent them from making their way around your tranny, for on that one. Once I finished the job I did what I usually do after making any changes on the car, take it for a spin. I Immidiately noticed the difference during shifting , the shifts were buttery smooth, I could not believe that this oil would make such a big difference . Overall the car just felt better it didn't feel like it did before, and as far as the notchiness, it's about 99% gone. To say this oil makes a big difference would be an under statement, the difference is simply huge. I highly recommend upgrading to this oil it definately made a bigger difference then Royal Purple did in my old bimmers. I will also be switching the differential and transfer case fluid to AMSOIL, apagan01 already know which oil is compatible with these components on our cars . There's no way I would put Diaqueen fluids on my car ever again. It's simply an inferior product and probably the worst oil I've come across.

just an FYI for others - YMMV. some reports that new engine oil helps shift better, some say mounts did wonders, and there were some that had little effect. the gearbox oil did the most in my case, even though it still feels notchy sometimes.

I am glad you noticed the difference in your tranny they way she shifts.
we claim in our products to outperform anything,,, so with that being said they better perform the way we say they perform.
many many customers have had the same outcome you are getting from your tranny better shifting and the tranny quiets down,, the MTG GL4 tranny fluid definatley has the best of both world, it lubes very well those gears and it gives the syncros the right amount of friction to enable smoth shifting.
