Stuff is absolutely amazing. Feels like a totally different transmissions. Smoother shifts, less notchiness and its hard to explain but it just grabs each gear better now. I can slap into gear now its so smooth. Only regret is that I didnt do this much much sooner. I would highly recommend this product to everyone.

 

can you tell us which RP oil we should buy for the transmittion and rear differential? and where did you get the product from? how much did you paid for the oil?

 

its the same fluid for the tranny and differential. 75w90 gearmax. i thought mine through amazon.com since i had some gift certificates. you need 6 quarts total.

 

What's the REG cost of this RP?

 

7 a quart

 

How did your old fluid look when you drained it out?

I want to change out my fluid SOOOO bad, but it's 30 to 40 degrees up here in Boston, and my apartment parking lot isn't level enough to safely put the car up on jack stands...i hate paying someone to do a job i can easily do myself!

 

6 or 7 quarts ? I plan do change it soon. Thanks.

 

6 quarts, 7 to be safe just incase you spill a bunch of it?

my oil looked ok i guess, but i only had 15k on her.

 

I wanted to go the Redline blend route but its so hard to get my venders to get some in and I dont like ordering online --I just like going down and buying it ---Napa has the RP----Ur pretty happy with it ,Huh ???

BTW ---52,000 miles with no change yet

 

I have been running Royal Purple in my tranny and diff for about 10K miles now and I can only say it gets better and better.

 

seems like most people are happy with synthetics in general...

 

for the most part. ive read a few people who have changed to redline and felt little or no difference. i have yet to see that from anyone who has tried RP.

 

Iv kept up on all the threads that discussed Lubes and heard so many Pros and Cons. Had read about the possible synchro probs with RP and little difference with Redline etc etc . Had to take so much with a grain of salt. But Im overdue and the RP is available so I quess I'll give it a shot. When it comes to Lubes so much is biased and one mans opinion versus another mans.

AH --- Nexx, You arent a rep with RP are u ??? Hmmm?

 

rofl nope. i just did a lot of reading before going with RP in my tranny. if i read something was better, then i would have gone with it. i have no love or loyalty to any company. i just buy what i think is best at the time that i can afford.

 

Well I like the redline fluids... I mean while the car's totally cold, it feels like normal OEM fluids, but once the car warms up, there's no comparison... much smoother shifting and I also feel like I can crunch/slam the gears with no ill effects

 

Man I need to do this asap, Im tired of waiting and not having time. I took the car to get an oil consumption test started, and also asked about the whine coming from the diff....they said its normal(thats 2 dealers now that say its normal). Im thinking maybe if I change the fluid it might go away. Would it be safe to add in a friction modifier to the diff along with the royal purple to quiet it down a bit??? So is it 2qts diff and 4qts tranny??? Thanks guys.

 

My dealership used RP on the transmission since it is prone to problem (even the new one). It feels great, it feels like it slides into a notch instead of me fighting to push it through.

 

do not add a friction modifier

 

Is there a reason why? How about friction mod. with the oem fluid???

 

I have Royal Purple MaxGear in my diff for the past 18,000 miles. It works great. No additional friction modifier needed. (RP already added it to MaxGear)
