Default So if a B4 trans takes GL-4, what brand is recommended?

I've heard rants that no GL-4 performs like Audi's brand. Who knows? Can anyone recommend something else? Mik?

Y'know, I know a guy who used GL-5 in his '95 man. trans... said it made everything a lot stiffer and newer feeling. Actually, it was Bilzcats (spelling?) (the guy who sells the short shifter kit). Makes sense I guess... regardless, I'll use GL-4.

But -what brand- ? It's the question that drives us.

Default I'm using redline MT90...a little smoother...

I've had redline in my tranny for about six months now. No complaints. I didn't notice much improvement in hot weather, but now that its getting cold it seems to shift smoother than last winter.

Plus it's cheaper than the Audi stuff.

Default Redline MT-90

I put it in my tranny and it shifts very nicely. Redline is a little bit pricy but I think that its good stuff. You can order it from prgasus.<ul><li><a href="http://www.pegasusautoracing.com">http://www.pegasusautoracing.com</a</li></ul>
