hey everybody i no this has been covered before i was reading through the old articals about this stuff. I mean i have tryed everything on my b16a ys1 tranny. I can say that **** is expensive but it's well worth it. I could tell a big difference from the minute i put the friction modify the stuff looks like it comes in a regular oil bottle. as i drove it got better and better. All i gotta say is for the people out their that are thinking about trying it. Do yourself and your tranny a favor try out what can it hurt. You WONT BE SORRY THAT YOU DID!!!! thanks again honda-tech peeps I think i payed like 11 or 12 bucks a quart.

 

yup.. same experience here, my b16 tranny was grinding alittle when id put it into 5th, spent $30 at GM dealer, got the syncromesh and the grinding has completely gone away. GM Synchro mesh

 

Could use this stuff as well.

i use a 50/50 mix of the pennzoil synchro mesh stuff and Mobil Delvac 15w30 diesel truck oil.


works GREAT.

used to use straight GM synchromesh. worked pretty good.

 

Unless you are low on fluid, the only thing this does is hide the real problem, it won't be a permanent fix, its just covering it up.

heard its the same formula as GM except just a different packaging...

 

i got pretty pissed when i spent the $ to put this stuff in. My trans went BOOM the next day. Not related to the fluid though, I highly reccomend it

 

unless your tranny is grinding, i believe this actually causes some wear. on a newly rebuilt tranny, or one in good condition, i would use oem spec.

 

Worked better than straight Synchromesh?

For some reason I can't find the Pennzoil stuff here in NC...

Could you explain why? Its a superior lubricant compared to conventional oils. Hence the cost.

Let us know how your tranny shifts after you put 20K on the new stuff. Then I will consider it. Sorry, just like to stick to what has worked in the past until I have long term proof.

 

i would never put 20k on my tranny without changing the fluid regardless of what i put in my tranny. I race hard period!! so i gotta take care of my stuff i usually change my tranny fluid like everyother oil change. I turely believe this why my tranny has lasted me so long

 

definitely would have to vouch for this fluid, only 2 gm product i use are the synchromesh fluid and the penetrating fluid.

Sorry, I didn't mean 20K on one fluid change. I meant 20k total on the GM syncromesh. Change it as many times as you'd like.
