GM Synchromesh?

[SilverStreak]

Anyone heard of GM Synchromest MTF??

I've read a lot of people using it in non GM cars and just love the stuff, makes the tranny really smooth and notch free.

Anyone else using this stuff?

[ninspeed]

i have heard that it works great in cars for smooth shifting.. not the cheepest stuff though..

Supposed to do wonders in the DSM trannies, besides BG Syncro and redlyne (sp?) tranny fluids it's probably the best stuff out there. Never tried it tho, thats just what i've heard from others, so i cant really give you any first hand experience.

i should try that in my tranny to help 3rd gear shifting

Does anyone know if this will work on my mr2??? And where do I get it from?? GM?:dunno: :

I switched to GM Synchromesh today and it feels a bit smoother. Gate entry is easier. The real test is to come though, need to see how well it works in the cold.

Penzoil, and a few others actually have a direct replacement/competition product that list the GM part#.

Ford actually recommends to some Mustang owners to use it on tough cold Stang trannies.

How much did it cost you??

[ecstasy_civic]

im pretty sure we sell that stuff at my work.{minit lube} its like 15 bucks to swap out the old stuff and put in the gm fluid

[mr.boost]

Really I called gm and they said it was 34 bucks a litre. Is the stuff at work labeled as a gm product?? If so when can i come down and get it put in my car?:D

It cost 5.25/Litre not $34. Just go to any GM dealer and they will have it.

I got that stuff put in my tranny for free, from Jack Carter, because I kept bitching and bitching about a "rattling chain" noise from the transmission. They said the new fluid should stop the noise.

However, by the way, it didn't fix the problem... :banghead:

I've used Redline MT90, GM Syncro, Amsoil and BG Syncroshift. BG is noticably better than the rest. You can get it for about $14/quart through Wagon Master Distributors. They have an office here in Calgary

[coldrsx]

even the acura tech recommended it for my rsx

[mr.boost]

the acura tech recommened bg?? or another kind?

if you have a tranny with synchros, it will work. The specs are pretty good in terms of wear protection. Read your owners manual about the specs that the tranny fluid should be first.
