at the moment its in need of a change (read: cold starts), but even when it warms up its gets rid of the 2nd gear crunch the car had when i first bought it.
should be getting a service soon, so i'll be putting that stuff back in.
It seems the super lightweight shockproof is very popular but i talked to a redline oil reseller and he said ppl usulaly buy lightweight shockproof instead of super lightweight. I m thinking to change the gear oil but dont know if i should go ahead with the super lightweight one. Any thoughts guys?
Sorry i m asking a noob question here. Whats the difference between a Manual Transmission Lubricant and Gear Oil? i thought they are the same but actually they are not. Recently i feel that my gear shift doesnt feel as smooth, which fluid should i change to improve the gear shift as well as the 2nd gear grind problem?
I talked to the representative from redline oil australia today, as for daily driving he recommended light weight shockproof instead of superlight weight. I will give that a go soon ;-)
Yeah, I'm running Redline MTL on my DC2R. It's really good - the gear changes are smooth now. I changed it straight after I brought my car 2 years ago as the gear changes seemed notchy. Changed to Redline MTL and the gear shifting was a lot more smoother - you can really tell the difference!
I've used Redline MTL in my DC5R gearbox twice now, with stints of MTF06 and Royal Purple inbetween both Redline MTL changes.
I don't rate MTF06 very highly, because the shifting feel becomes crap after a track day. For some reason, the gearbox is more prone to crunching. On the other hand, redline MTF hasn't given me the same issues after the recent track day that I went to.
To me, once the gearbox is warmed up the MTL provides a smoother shift than the MTF, which is about the same as the RP Syncomesh that I've previously used. I like the MTL and would reccomend it over the MTF.
