what is good transmission oil?

U seem so easy to manipulate for marketers. Transmission oil this early? unless you drive 200 miles a day or something.

Even if you are driving 200 miles a day. If you want to change the oil wait till you need to change it then put in the UberGoldSchlagenTurBorino Quantum Tranny Lover Oil. Waste of money to change it now.

If you're looking for some transmission oil, I've got a whole case of transmission oil I can sell you. And to make the deal sweeter, I'll even throw in some free Arizona beach-front property.

If you enjoy having a valid warranty on your 7AT, you'll leave the stock Matic S fluid alone.

If you're talking about the manual transmission, I've used Prodrive transmission oil on my Mini Cooper S and loved it. However, it was quite costly so I switched to other brands like Torco and Liquid Moly just to try (cause if you don't try, you'd never know for yourself), but I still prefer Prodrive.

I'm not going to tell you how buttery smooth it was or yaddah yaddah. You'd just have to try it, to believe it! =)

Your mileage may vary.

Ooooooh well... Useless information for the 7AT, but useful for the 6MTers out there then! =)
