    I have 44k miles on my 2013 Jeep Wrangler, have changed the manual trans fluid every 15k or so and was not happy with how notchy and would ocationally grind. After installing this fluid. Smooth sailing.

    Great Product
    By  Billy,  a  Verified Buyer  from  Citrus Heights, CA  on  April 17, 2017
    I bought my RSX with about 83,000 miles on it. It had no maintenance records for when the transmission fluid had been previously changed. I changed it with Honda MTF about 3,000 miles later after it had developed a sticky third gear( basically it would catch when trying to put it into third gear). This seemed to work for a bit but it started to catch and stick after a while. I had been using Amsoil Motor Oil for my previous and current car and I had no complaints so I figured with no maintenance schedule for when previous fluids had been changed, it would be a good idea to replace all the fluids with Amsoil fluids, (which I did, except for the Power Steering Fluid which Honda/Acura are very specific about using their own brand... or else). Anyways, after replacing all fluids, the biggest noticeable difference was my clutch fluid(replaced with Amsoil Dot3 Brake Fluid) which came out a nasty brown color and looked like it had been there for the life of the car, that brought the spring back into the clutch, and my transmission. I had a hard time believing that changing the fluid would make that much of a difference. It felt like little robots had gone into the transmission and lubed up the necessary gears because third gear became buttery smooth. And I was scared that this was something that would last for only a little while, a placebo effect even, but I've put on approximately another 3,000 miles and the third gear grind has become a distant memory. Now this might not be your exact experience but Amsoil has changed my car, it has given me a reason to shift. So yeah, you should try it.
    Bottom Line
    Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.

    By  Ramrod,  a  Verified Buyer  from  Home  on  April 03, 2017
    Bearing noise seems to be gone with this oil. Will not know for sure tell summer heat and heavy load, but I'm a believer now.
    Bottom Line
    Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.

    Smooth shifting ahead
    By  Touge Finder,  a  Verified Buyer  from  Gatineau, QC  on  February 21, 2017
    I replaced the OEM fluid in my Honda Civic Si for Amsoil Syncromesh as a precautionary measure. If you own one of these you might know how the transmission is sensitive, this fluid totally smooths out shifts and keeps the action slick even in cold weather. Totally worth it.
    Bottom Line
    Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.

    tiny bit disappointed willing to give it time
    By  peter,  a  Verified Buyer  from  Port Washington, NY  on  February 01, 2017
    I am slightly disappointed with the performance of my transmission in my 2012 Acura TL with manual transmission since I switched from the factory product to Amsoil. I have noticed a very slight hesitation in the second gear syncromesh, especially when cold. I am thinking that perhaps this fluid is not fully compatible with the factory stuff, and there is probably a little residual fluid from the manufacturer in the gearbox. Or maybe this stuff is so slick that the synchros can't get a bite. I am a maintenance fanatic, so I change the fluid every 15k, so perhaps the next service will render a better result.
    Bottom Line
    Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.

    By  Rabbit,  a  Verified Buyer  from  Kirtland, New Mexico  on  January 09, 2017
    Installed at 30,000 miles changed it at 150,000 miles. My vehicle is a 2004 Dodge ram 2500 H/O Cummins , standard tranny. Pull a trailer approx 21,000 lbs about 20 percent of the time. No discoloration, no metal and no seal leaks. I am sold on Amsoil. Great products and great service. All of my truck's fluids are 100 percent Amsoil. Have not had any fluid related problems.
    Bottom Line
    Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.

    Better than OE Ford fluid for MT-82
    By  Michael,  a  Verified Buyer  on  December 16, 2016
    I used this fluid in my 2014 Mustang GT (MT-82 Transmission). I was looking for a fluid that would perform better in cold temperatures than the OE Ford "DCT" fluid. Works great! Shifts are chunky and smooth instead of feeling harsh and overly snappy. In extreme cold (0 Fahrenheit) the MT-82 synchros can be grindy, but I haven't had as much bad synchronization since changing.
