6 Speed Fluid Part Number

[Bunn]

I'm sure the answer to this is somewhere in the archives, but I couldn't find it... .



What is the mopar part number for the NV5600 transmission fluid? The parts guy at my work told me that it was the same stuff that goes in the NV3500. This can't be true. TIA

It is the same as the NV3500. The same fluid is available as Penzoil Syncromesh, Shell MTX and Quaker State MTX. All the same fluid made by the same company and all unfortunatly not synthetic.

it is the same stuff as the nv3500... so you can go to mopar or GM for the fluid, or go pensoil, shell, or quakerstate for equals.



i went with mopar for mine. it was $0. 15cdn more per qt and was in stock, so i went with that.

Don't waste your time with non synthetic in your NV5600.

Run some Redline MTL, it made a night and day difference in ease of shifting in my 6 speed w/dual disc.

75w/80 or 75w/90 on the MTL?

MTL is not Gear lube! MTL is more along the line of 10w-30. Never put gear lube in a NV56000!!! The Redline MTL is a specific weight and only comes in that wieght.

What you need is Redline Manual Trans Fluid (MTL) 70w80.

Thats what it says on a bottle I have sitting right here.

Doug what are you talking about?

Redline comes in 2 weights and it is a Gear lube of a different type.

Thanks guys, I think I'm going to go with the Red Line

Redline

Go with the redline, it's the bomb. Don't pay attention to the wieght, it does not make sence. The wieghts are differant thatwe were all taught. But it does work well. Oo.

 

[InThinAir]

Redline MTL doesn't come in different wieghts. It is a 70w80 which is a 5W30 or 10W30 engine oil viscosity. There is a MT-90 which is not MTL... They also have specific gear lubes.



Or don't listen to me just go to their site: http://www.redlineoil.com/products_gearlubricants.asp
