Think it would be O.K. if I use Honda Manual Transmission Fluid on other non-Honda cars?

Thanks,

Jim

 

if they require dexron II or III it would probably be ok.

what does the car say it requires? there are different ATFs.

 

ever try GM Syncromesh? good stuff

 

I think MTF wouldn't be a good substitute for Dexron - you thought he said Honda ATF? MTF is almost like 10w30 motor oil which Honda specd before about '96 or so.

Honda MTF is getting quite a following among people with '79 to '93 Saab 900 manual trannys. Those are kinda notchy transmissions & Honda MTF really improves them.

I guess I'd use it if the owner's manual calls for engine oil in the manual transmission. That's a lot of cars these days. If the manual calls for GL5 gear oil, I probably wouldn't use Honda MTF.

 

Thanks!

duh, i misread

yeah, redline MTL and GM synchromesh is what some people for trannies that have a slight grind. i would not use reg 10w-30 if you live in cold climate. the honda MTF is really good and fixes many peoples problems they get from using 10w-30, so i think it would be fine to use other cars.
