I have no idea. Weren't you using Red Line MTL before? Why the switch?
Big Earner
Yup it's currently running with red line MTL. At first the gears shifted smoothly but as I put on more miles, the tranny doesn't seem too happy, especially the 1-2 shift. Just thought I'd try a different fluid this time. I was planning on going with the OEM oil but I did a little googling and found that pentosin works very well for the e46 M3. I'm fairly confident it works for the Zhp too but I wanted to confirm. Pentosin also stopped production of the MFT2, so they're not easily available but I found a shop close to work which has it in stock.

Most recommend ATF in for our manuals. I dug through threads for a few weeks and ended up with Red Line D4 ATF.

I misspoke... it was the evaporator that's leaking--hence the access issue and excessive labor. Got my second opinion and it was $1,500 as expected. To hell with that... fortunately, we hardly ever sweat in Vermont.

Redline ATF. Give that a try.
I liked it over MTL/MT90

What's the difference? Is ATF fluid less viscous?
Consigliere
The mt90 felt better when cold but the d4 atf is better when its warm. Just made it seem very smooth and not notchy.
