I used the manual transmission fluid in my 2010 Audi A4 6 speed, and it works great. Transmission shifts so much smoother. Highly recommended!
Bottom Line
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.

Great lubrication

My car sat for about a year, when I finally decided to fix the radiator, it was shifting properly...I changed the manual transmission, but didn’t help...as soon as I put in Amsoil product I felt it right way, perhaps probably because of all the detergent.
Amsoil makes the best synthetic oils. Been using them for years. By far the best protection for engines, transmissions, and gears
Bottom Line
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.

Very Direct Shift Feel

Very slick and direct feeling shifts in 2019 Mazda MX-5 compared to OEM fluid when warm. After a few hundred miles the cold shift quality has become a bit firm and requires a bit of patience compared to the stock fluid for the first few minutes of driving.
I don't mind this as the shift feel is more direct and much slicker when warm. This fluid doesn't offer the same perfect shift quality when cold as the OEM Mazda fluid but feels much slicker and satisfyingly notchy and direct when at operating temperature. It literally falls into 4, 5th and 6th and I like actually feeling the synchromesh engage through the shift knob. The lively shift feel from a Miata transmission with this fluid is really amazing and leads to more accurate foot work and will likely aid in transmission longevity.
Bottom Line
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.

Appears to be the best lubricant on the market.
Thank you for putting time, money and energy in developing a lubricant that extends life of an equipment that's used in.
When I switched over to Amsoil for the engine, transmission, transfer case and differentials my fuel mileage increased. Also when I used their fuel injector cleaner it fixed my engine hesitation when starting out from a dead stop.
Bottom Line
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.

This fluid does a great job with colder temperatures. Really smooth shifts. I have used this in 2 Mazdas and both times it changed from crunchy shifts with grinding on some gears with stock fluid, to very smooth shifts on all gears.
Bottom Line
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.

The only OEM replacement gear oil for the NV 4500 I could find with a GL-4 rating. Seemed to remove 50-60% of gear noise and vibration compared to stock fluid with 104k miles on it. If you buy it in the quart size plastic bottles,be prepared to pour it in another container to use with your parts house hand pump that fits the typical quart plastic bottles. Don’t be a cheapskate if you have the NV 4500 transmission. It Matters!
Ok when i was using regular gear oil for my transmission, the one recommended from dealer or autoparts. I was noticing the my engine was a bit under load .
¿How I noticed that ?
Because when I press the clutch pedal in neutral the car actually moves a tiny bit , acting like it was on gear at idle , like on an automatic cars you put in D and it will start move if you release the brake pedal, well my car felt it the same but in very small amount of force hardly noticed when you pressed the clutch but it shouldn’t trying to move nothing at all if is in neutral by pressing and depressing the clutch.
Mine did Also RPM i can see it the needle slightly move up and down by pressing and depressing the clutch, so the motor was receiving some load from transmission gears even in neutral at idle, felt it more when was cold oil was heavy!
So I ordered the amsoil and drained the gear oil i was using it.
The load disappeared immediately, not more rpm needle moving when i was engaging or dis engaging the clutch , RPM needle remains in the same spot at idle , other things the I noticed was the i had way smoother shifter and milage in my car increased by 1to 3mpg more or less, i can coast in my car way longer in neutral and im a guy the loves to get the most mileage out of a gallon of fuel.
I fully recommend it. My car is a 2002 vw wagon TDI 1.9 ALH motor.
First time using this fluid and really can’t help but think why I waited so long. The feel of the shifter has changed, not that it was bad before. The best word I can think of is “slick”. I am not one to go overboard on brand loyalty, performance is all that matters. Have found a great product for my manual trans, and will keep buying this product for all my vehicles.
I change fluids and brands often, now I see why this brand has such a rabid following. Consider me a convert, at the end of the day, the numbers don’t lie when these products are tested and compared to other brands. Car maintenance is often overlooked if not out right ignored nowadays. For those of us that do maintenance on our vehicles, just get the best fluids and know that your investment that takes you to work and play will last reliably for years to come.
