Product Description:
Red Line 50304 Manual Transmission (MT) 90W Gear Oil - 1 Quart
Red Line Oil MTL and MT-90 are designed to provide excellent protection and improved shiftability for manual transmissions and transaxles, having cured the problem of hard shifting in thousands of transmissions with shifting troubles. They have the appropriate coefficient of friction for most manual transmission synchronizers (many gear oils, engine oils, and ATFs are too slippery for proper synchro engagement). And, the wide viscosity of MTL and MT-90 allow proper shifting over the entire temperature range which the transmission will experience. The synthetic base oils used have a very high viscosity index which provides relatively constant viscosity as temperature changes. MTL is a low 70W at very low temperatures and a high 80W, nearly an 85W, at elevated temperatures, providing adequate viscosity to prevent wear and deaden gear noise. MT-90 is a thicker 75W90 version of MTL. The shear stability and oxidation stability of these products are excellent, thus the physical characteristics of Red Line MTL and MT-90 will change little with use.

Good product, poor shipping methods (2010-07-25) Rating: 4/5
It seems to be working fine in my NV4500 transmission, no problems so far. One bottle had leaked half of it's contents out into the box that it was shipped in however, which could have been prevented had there been any packing peanuts or something along those lines that would have prevented the bottle from getting it's top smashed to the point that it leaked.
Worth every penny (2010-06-05) Rating: 5/5
I had some trouble with my Mazda 3s shifting into 2nd, sometimes I would get grinding or it would slip out. After this fluid change the shifting is perfect, I'm extremely impressed.

1980 Mercedes 240D 4 speed manual transmission with somewhere north of half a millions miles
the car is still worth the using a good transmission oil
If you think this stuff is expensive, check out the price of an transmission overhaul. I plan to put a lot more miles on this car.

Shifting is Smoother! (2010-04-13) Rating: 5/5
Great oil! It made a big difference in my 92 Nissan 240sx. It also might of been because the gear oil hadn't been changed in a while. The old oil looked black like coffee with metal shavings! Either way shifting is way smoother now with the MT-90. If you're on the fence on getting this I say do it! It's GL-4 just what the service manual said my tranny required. If you put GL-5 it can mess with the synchros inside the tranny. Just get this and have peace of mind.
smoother shifts! (2010-04-02) Rating: 5/5
Oil was packaged very securely in plastic bags. Shifting is a lot better now- smoother and less "clanking" when shifting gears.
