Default tranny oil for s2000 and wind noise questions

what kind of tranny oil should i buy? i've heard that hondas should ONLY use honda MTF from the dealership...is this the same for the s2000? also, my shifter is a bit notchy going into 3rd and 4th at low rpms...i took it to the dealership and they said this is standard operation...sound right?

finally, my s2000 seems to make a lot of noise on the freeway doing around 75mph+...sounds of wind going over the soft top...once again is this normal. a friend of mine said he's rode in a BWM convertable and it was quiet as hell doing 75+.

I have tried both Honda tranny oil and Redline MTL in my S2000. Factory Honda MTL actually felt better in my opinion.

If you drive hard ,I suggest redline mtl in the car,otherwise the oem fluids are just fine.....

A lot of people on S2ki.com recommend GM SyncroMesh instead of Honda MTF..I think i will try that when it is time to change my tranny fluid.
