Did a search for synthetic Tranny fluid and found that Redline is being used by everyone. But everyone appears to be using MT-90. Im one of the few that have an Automatic tranny. Redline makes an synthetic ATF. Is it good for my egg or should I use the MT-90 too. (MT=Manual Tranny, ATF=Auto Tranny fluid)

Whose fluid are the Auto Tranny people using??

Do not use MT fluid in your automatic transmission....unless you want to replace the transmission.

Oh NO.. Im not planning on using the MT-90 fluid.

Just want to know what fluid everyone else is using for NX auto tranny. Nismo, Moble 1, the Purple stuff, Redline or something else?

The mysterious Lucas snake oil.. Im really afraid of using that stuff but if it helps, I may try some..

Any other suggestions? I know we have other people with Auto trannies.

Eggxactly!!

I've been using Lucas syn 80w with Redline shock-proof; no problems whatsoever in fact gear transition is much smoother compared to using plain tranny fluid! But I have a mt tranny.
