Many times people will post their problems and/or questions. But they wont really post when something goes really well for them. I wanted to share my experience with a lubricant I used in my R154 transmission. The transmission was giving out on me, and finally it came to the point where 1st-2nd and sometimes third wouldnt even grab gear. So lubricants cant fix this problem cause the damage is done. So I got a newer low mileage transmission and put Valvoline Syn-Power (Full Synthetic) 75W-90 as recommended from here on the forums. I did my research and I couldnt get MT-90 on time to me cause I needed a lubricant like, now! for the swap. Royal Purple was at my disposal but due to the additive packs I was afraid the syncro's would not slow in time.
I drove the car slowly at first and then started building up to a faster pace. The transmission shifted beautiful and did not have not one hiccup at all! I am very impressed with this oil. I short shifted, shifting at high-rpm, down-shifter with and without a rev-match. Heal-toe driving, everything, it just worked perfect. I dont know what else to say other than I am very happy. I wish i could be more scientific, but I dont know how else to document my findings.
I would appreciate jDubs opinion on this one.
Thank you.
