    Are there any high performance models with CVT's?

    A buddy of mine had a 2013 Maxima that had 185k on it before he hit a deer and totaled it. It would put you back in the seat pretty nicely and he never had any issues with the CVT. He did change the CVT fluid religiously at 30k intervals which I'm sure helped.

    ATF +4 Hotshot?

    Only personal experience, and what Dave at Red Line told me about C+. I've been running C+ in my Ram 1500 65RFE for 8 years now with 0 issues with shifting or shudder. The RFE trans are notorious for not liking anything but licensed ATF+4 due to its specific frictional properties.

    ATF +4 Hotshot?

    The only unlicesned ATF+4 I would recommend is Red Line C+. It has the exact frictional characteristics as a licensed ATF+4 except with a better base oil and better cold flow. Otherwise, any licensed ATF+4 will serve you well. If you look at the specs of licensed ATF+4, Castrol Transmax ATF+4...

    Redline sI-1 boroscoped I week later!

    After I boroscoped my 5.7 Hemi in my 2013 Ram 1500, I found what I consider to be excess carbon on the pistons. I ran a can of Amsoil power foam, 1 tank of Amsoil PI, 1 tank of SI-1 (1.5 bottles to cover the 32 gallon tank). Ran that last tank down to about 1/4 then filled up with 20 gallons of...

    2011+ Ram and other RFE owners delete ATF heater

    Since when has higher trans fluid temps been good for the transmission? I'll keep my truck the way it is: without the TBV. 51k of trouble free miles with my 65RFE and 6k of that was towing my 4000lb camper across the country and back. All while running between 135-150*. I saw 175 once while...

    So I'm curious, where is this info found that Redline didn't get the BMW cert because they "required G3 oil"?

    Quieting Hemi Tick with Redline Oil

    So far I'm about 730 miles into this current Redline run. Its definitely quieter than Amsoil SS 5w30 but its not where it was a few months ago before I tried Amsoil SS.
