I see everyone here loves the lubegard red, but assuming I can't get that were I live, which is seems I can't, is the lucas decent?

That one doesn't ship to where I am.

What is a "line off exchange" and which lubegard red product? Lubegard Red They have quite a few. The only two that ship from Amazon to Israel are the Lubegard 19610 Dr. Tranny Instant Shudder Fixx and the Lubegard 61910 Highly Friction Modified ATF Supplement.

I have a 98 Mazda 626 with the GF4A-EL transmission which has some light to moderate slipping upshifting into second and maybe a bit of loss of power in second / third ( I'm not completely sure which ). I'll also get some small spiking of the rpms in 2nd / 3rd occasionally. I changed the ATF (...

Just looked at the BITOG chart, and you're right; 10w40 should be just fine for me since I live in a pretty hot environment. The chart in the Nissan manual even says I could run straight gl-4 90 gear oil due to the heat here, so any xW-40 should be fine for a while I guess.

Is there a specific reason why a few people have mentioned 10w30, as opposed to some other grade of engine oil like 20w50, etc...

You think 10w40 engine oil would be ok for a few days?

I have a manual transmission 99 Nissan Almera 1.6L, with the RS5F31A transmission which calls for GL-4 only oil, 75w-90. I've developed a serious leak, and the gear case is almost empty. I'm going to install replacement oil seals, but the problem is that the nearest place that sells GL-4 only...

Great, thanks! Since everyone here thinks so highly of it I think I'll try and get the Redline MT90.

I have no idea if the clutch is adjustable, or even what it means to have an adjustable clutch.

Almera not Altima, it's kinda the European version of the Sentra I think.

I'm worried about the hypoid thing too, I checked on the red line website, but they only have american models. The American parallel to the Almera is the Sentra ( almost identical ) and for that car it says to use the MT90.

I have a 99 Nissan Almera which occasionally grinds / doesn't engage when I try and put it into fifth gear. I was talking to someone about changing the gear oil since I'm going to replace the cv boots. The Hayens manual says my tranny takes Hypoid gear oil, viscosity SAE 80W to API GL4. This...

I've seen two different sites which claim using Mercron V in a CD4E will damage it: Everything You Need To Know About The Ford CD4E Transmission Quote: What kind of fluid should I use in my customers CD4E? Mercron. Please do not confuse this with Mercron V which will damage your customer’s...

So this could be the same as the motorcraft oil, just cheaper and in a different jug?

I went ahead with the fully synthetic Prestone 5W40. Seems to be running well so far. Nickdfresh - cool you were able to find a description of the oil - I couldn't find it on the Prestone website. Since I live in Israel, it probably is sold only in middle eastern or asian markets I guess... I...

I'm fairly new to this, so could you go into a little more detail?

On autozone it says either 5W30 or 10W30 - they're out of the cheapish Prestone SynBlend 5W30, the next cheapest thing that looks decent is a Prestone 5W40 Fully Synthetic. I figure since "winter" is starting and 99% of my driving is short hops in the city the 5W40 Full Syn might be good for me...

Looks like I'll just go for the Prestone 5W30 or the Motorcraft if it's about the same price. I'll update on how it does after I put some miles on it.

I just bought a Manual 97 Mazda Lantis 323 1.8L DOHC 16 Valve BP which in the USA seems to be labeled a Protege. I'll try and provide as much info as I can as per the sticky oil post. The head and rings were done on the car a few years ago. Previous owner says it was using about 4 liters of oil...
