Hey there fellow BITOGers.. I'm finnaly back into a 6MT vehicle.
In this case it's attached to an LSA in a CTS-V.
Even though I have a general idea of what I'm going to do for OCI's and oil choice after a few hours of searching I still have a few questions;
concerning the TR6060;
1) I know that any Universal ATF is generally recomended for this trans, and some even go with syncromesh or an acutal gear oil.
I was partial to some Mobil 1 ATF myself(for warranty reasons mostly, but it's also available locally) however I have concerns about using this since the specification for this trans very specifically states Dexron III. It was designed during a time that Dexron VI was avaliable so I have to wonder if there's an actual reason that this was specifically required. Anyone know if My assumptions have grounds? On the one hand I want to use the right product, but on the other hand, Dex III is an obsolete specification, so the *only* oil that's going to be compliant is NOS that's a couple of years old..
2) about when should I change the factory fill oil?
