    Tranny oil

    What are you using? Manual.

    Seems like the stealer is charging way too much. What is the best alternative and where can I find it?

    Thanks

    I'm using Red Line MTL, bought mine from Rosenthal Mazda for my Miata, but end up using it for the BMW.

    Bought it around $10-20 bucks a quart.

    That is about half what the stealer wanted. Thanks

    Yeah, I think I will go with the Red Line. I stopped into Autozone to see if they carry it, fail. I wil have to order some and hope I get it before saturday so I can change it then.

    I bought my Red Line diff oil (for LSD) from Amazon.com this past summer. Cheapest I could find. They might have cheap tranny oil too.

    Stupid Amazon, they didn't have it in stock until next week. Prime = FAIL!

    I am going to go with royal purple since autozone has it in stock, only a couple bucks more than Red Line. Sucks to be me since I want to get this adn the oil done at the same time and cannot wait for the oil cause I have a small leak. I think the filter is clogged.
