Trans/ Dif oils
 
I had the 1st Saturday off in a while decide to look for the Differential and manual Transmission oils called all my local auto parts stores I can only find the correct weight for the Differential but the transmission oil is not even available at the dealer. I have found it online in California. The reason for my post is that the dealer said that manual is so unpopular they don't carry the oil and in his 25 years of service at the dealership he never has had anyone ask for it, really?...Well kids trans oil weight is 75w-85 and everyone I have seen used the 75w-90 instead, not sure if I wanted to do that so I ordered it online, maybe next weekend I will do it..just wanted to post this as my project got cancelled and I'm bored to death, I guess is gym time.. :driving:

I figure the Nissan engineers know more about lubes than I or the guy/gal behind the counter at the parts store. ;)

Use this in your transmission -- it dramatically improves shifting, especially when cold.

That's funny, Amazon says it does not fit my 2014 Nissan 370z.:icon18:

I have been running this in my 370Z's for 8 years. Amazon is often inaccurate.

No doubt inaccurate, just thought it was funny.
