you could try redline tranny fluid. I think 75w90.

Default GM syncro mesh is supposed to be the best out there....

I've heard bad things about redline.

Default well, from a domestics standpoint.......

I know of a few people that have added redline to their Mustangs and have experienced more noises. I know a bunch of people running GM Snycro mesh in there stangs and love it. Although some cars have success with the Redline, I'm not sure about Audis though.

Default From what I've read...the boys at 034 love the redline stuff an alot of other..

audi drivers. I'd say it's probably not the best for every application, but from what I've read with are syncros it's the best stuff.

Default could be, its hit or miss depending on the tranny......

if you know of people having luck with it in Audis than go for it. I'd read up on the syncro mesh though. I know people are even putting it in Honda's, Subaru's, etc.
