JunktionFET Posted July 14, 2013 Report Share Posted July 14, 2013 I forget how much oil, something like 2-3 quarts. It takes 10w40 engine oil. I'd avoid synthetics as they can sometimes make shifting difficult (reduces friction that the synchros need to do their job). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tulaweb Posted July 14, 2013 Report Share Posted July 14, 2013 We had a discussion about this here last yearhttp://www.505turbo.com/forum/index.php?/topic/2309-tranmission-oil/as a result of that conversation and my discussion with Red Line, I'm using Red Line MT-90 75W90 GL-4 Gear Oil, and I'm happy with it. http://www.redlineoil.com/product.aspx?pid=46 The specs say it takes 1.8L but I find it takes more like 2.5qts.
