CTR lsd tranny fluid?
My S4C lsd tranny has a slight grind at higher rpms when shifting into 3rd. I'm going to change the fluid this weekend. Is there any specific fluid I need for an lsd trans? My 2 choices were either Honda MTF or GM/ pennzoil synchromesh. Any advice?
Also, if anyone could tell me the fluid capacity that'd be great too

Synchromesh isn't going to cure worn teeth on a synchro. It might be easier for worn teeth to cut through, but you still haven't addressed the issue correctly. I would use nothing else other then Honda MTF. If the grind is still there after a fluid change (which it most likely will be) then its time to change the synchro.

Alright. Well I plan on fixing it this winter but was hoping that changing the fluid would help a bit till then. I'll change it anyways. Thanks for the replies everyone

yep. you just have to drain it all the way. I pull the plug, go make some 'za and watch TV or do whatever else for 2 hours ...maybe hit up some internet ****....

No, but I'd recommend Redline MTL.

Re: (Blk00EJ8)
acura has their own version with synchromesh in it to help with the problems that the rsx's where having. I put it in my old da gsr that was starting to grind and it fixed it. Or at least quited it down a lot.
