In there manual tranny's?



Synchromax is recommended for manual transmissions that specify an automatic transmission fluid or motor oil. It is also ideal for 4x4 transfer cases and / or 2-cycle and 4-cycle motorcycle gear boxes.

Synchromax is formulated with Royal Purple's synthetic, proprietary Synerlec additive technology, which offers improved shift quality over a wide temperature range and reduced gear noise.

Synchromax is fully compatible with all types of friction materials and offers excellent corrosion and oxidation protection without affecting the soft metals commonly found in manual transmission synchronizers.

I think you just want to buy a bottle and sit on it. J/K. I thought about switching to it but its expensive.

 

Would one use this instead of tranny fluid or as an additive.

 

Instead of tranny fluid. My Ion manual states the manual tranny only needs 1.8 quarts to be filled so it's not bad. I really want to try it.

 

I heard it is really good stuff. Just wasn't sure if you use it instead or as an additive.

I think when I change my tranny fluid I might give this a shot.

 

I have had it in mine for going on a year. Very nice stuff if you live somewhere with very cold winter temperatures.

 

i have it in my garage and was gonna have the dealer put it in. but they said it would void the trans warranty

 

Yes I have it it mine sold and installed by the dealer.It has made it a much smoother shifting trans when cold and REALLY slick when the fluid warms up to operating temp.

Tell your dealer to find a new line of work because he knows nothing of the one he is in.

 

Im running it in my car, as well i only used 2 quarts.

 

so do the MU3's take synchromax or not this has been debated many times

 

So those that run it, did you straight swap out the old for the syncromax?

Where can you pick this stuff up?

 

Straight swap, empty trans and fill with Syncromax, good stuff!

 

i have it in the tranny of my 81 BMW 320i (stock tranny, 177,000 miles, and as near as i can tell, the oil in it was at LEAST ten years old when i changed it).

it really helps it shift when it is cold out, and it runs a lot quieter and cooler. it's good stuff, but i've heard horror stories of people using non-atf in these cars...

 

i broke down and swapped with the saturn stuff...wasnt so much a swap as a drain and fill

 

How hard is it to fill/drain our stock transmission? Where is the drain plug?

 

on the redline its right behind the i guess engine cradle on the drivers side...take off the wheel and you need a 8mm L wrench put a little cheater bar on it and give it hell it will feel like you broke something but relax...the fill hole is the top one fill it til it leaks out

 

there is a how to on it someplace.... lemmie sees if i can find.

 

i belive its for the F23

 

Im using the Royal Purple MAX GEAR 75w-90, I was told that it is comparable but better than the OEM fluid.

 

I'm running the Royal Purple 75W-90 Max Gear Oil as well. It's real nice and the only comparable tranny fluid to the Saturn Manual Transmission fluid our cars run. It's actually a lot better than it too!

Read and Heed, the Syncromax is not the same stuff and does not meet the standards our cars require!

 

ha i knew it

 

I don't understand, in terms of facts not opinions, how this is any better than regularly maintained oem recommended fluid. I must b stoopid?

 

You answered my questions and I didn't even have to ask.

 

We can run ATF fluid in our manual tranny's? Cool

 

i dont think you can, but i am not exactly sure on that.
