![Question](https://rennlist.com/forums/images/icons/icon5.gif)
I'm driving an 85.5 NA and I'm not sure which transaxle fluid to use. I've read that you should use different fluid weights for limited slip as opposed to non-limited slip. I’ve also read good things about both Swepco and Redline. Anyone got some suggestions.
Thanks

I just run Mobil 1 synthetic gear oil. I'm not too sure what the weight is, it don't say. I don't think that you have LSD either, so it shouldn't be an issue.

See Paragon tech articles: http://www.tech-session.com/kb/index...x_v2&id=31&c=4
Redline RL75W90NS for non LSD cars, or RL75W90 for LSD cars - both are GL5 oils. If you want to stick with GL4 oils, then RLMT90 see the Paragon Tech articles for an explanation of GL4 vs GL5 etc.
Just changed mine last week and am VERY pleased with the improved shift quality, etc.
