Which Manual Transmition Fluid for K series

[Chi]

the B series gearbox already has magnets, i'd be hoping the K series one does too?

AUDM K series don't come with Magnetic sump bolts.

The drive train has magnets inside there some where though.

But you cant really clean it unless you open the whole casing and get into it.

Cool, saved me a few bucks there Dave because i was going to get a magnetic bolt for it

The magnet is inside the case, hard to clean.

i actually didn't know our Bseries Gearbox Drain Bolt was magnetic..

i could have sworn i remember testing that to find it isn't magnetic.. i use the magnetic spoon drain bolt things.. i like them =P

the drain bolt is NOT magnetic.

So far so good with the redline gearbox oil wayne.....drove to uni and shifting into gear was smoother (trying to get this thread back on topic )

well i was certain it will be smoother..

but i wanna know if it solved that problem that both our Type S have =P

Guys when you say redline can you please be more specific.

Guys when you day redline can you please be more specific.

we used Lightweight Shockproof on his gearbox..

I dont think new gear box oil will fix it. I should try shifter bushings or u could

I just read that redline lightweight and superlight weight sacrifices durability.
called redline and told me you should change them 1000-2000 ks ... wtf???

i must be out of my mind to even reply to that post.. but neway..

1 persons testimonial VS how many others thats used it

and you want me to believe you called up redline and they told you the above?

if your so paranoid used OEM mTF.. (which is technically just HONDA feo with additives)

Hey man the guy said its for race applications. change after race basically.
here is the doc where it says use if you don't care about durability.

he *read* it here wayne:

http://www.redlineoil.com/whitePaper/11.pdf

ShockProof™ Gear Oil has a 40% lower coefficient of friction and 250% the load-carrying capacity compared to conventional gear oils, which
means that metal-to-metal friction is greatly reduced.

Temperature reductions between 25°F - 75°F are common in circle track, road racing, and off-road racing.

Improved durability in high-performance use is the primary benefit of the Heavy ShockProof™ and along with the improved durability is an improvement in efficiency, but if further improvements in efficiency are desired, and durability is not a major concern, LightWeight and SuperLight ShockProof™ can be used.

The cushioning effect of the ShockProof™ chemistry allows the use of one of the lighter viscosities in many performance applications with little
sacrifice in durability.

it is a bit poorly written so easy to miscomprehend the actual meaning of the comments.

LOL!

that is not what it says at all!

[PolitoHood]

Well I wasnt sure so i called. and they explained to me that its was for race applications.

And needed to be changed after 1000-2000ks.

so i believe im right in the way ive read it!!!
instead of laughing tell me you interpretation
