Regular stuff

Spent $40 nothing happend.

Went and did a few backcountry races and now my tranny doesnt grind at all. The gears got all smooth.

Blaze

 

AnYone tried the Ford version? I heard it works better for Lsd from a guy that rebuilds a lot of transmissions.

 

the ONLY reason you all like that GM Syncromesh **** is because you have not tried the B&G manual tranny fluid.

 

GM part # 12345349
5 months
Works great!

 

1) regular (NOT friction modified)

2) 1 month

3) shifting at low speeds feels the same as honda MTF, however it greatly reduced 3rd gear grinding at high rpms (somethine the honda MTF couldnt do)

 

so can you get it at advance or auto-zone and places like that or jsut dealers?

 

but there are too many threads on this

 

My little secret,use swepco transmission fuild.Works wonders on my porsche,mr2 turbo and very smooth on my civic before it got stolen.Cost about $70 a gallon.You can buy it at any porsche dealer.

OH GREAT!!! Another can of worms in the MIX!! hehehhe No really, how does this stuff work? What made you decide to put this Porsche stuff in your Honda??? How long did you have it in your Civic to come to a conclusion?

By the way, Nice fleet of cars you own!!!

 

I use the regular one in my civic and I like it a lot. I think I will never going back to honda MTF again. I have not try it in my Porsche but I will soon.

 

the regular version is supposed to be alot like honda mtf. the friction modified version has had better results according to the thread.

 

YES IT DEFINETLY WORKS!!!!!!

 

1. 1 month
2. gm syncromesh
3. very good results (acelerates more smoothly, looks like i will get better gas mileage, rarely start to have a slight grind in tranny)
it took about 250-300 miles to start seeing the effect of it. for the money, i feel it was worth it.

 

AMSOIL has just released there version of the GM SYNCROMESH, i will be using that

 

I used the Penzoil version, and it worked great. My car would grind 3rd a lil bit and i could not put the car into first when it was rolling. put the mesh in and it worked great.

 

Motul have released a synthetic specifically formulated for Honda transmissions. I just poured 2 litres into my tranny after changing the input shaft bearing. Will let you guys know in a couple days/weeks how it goes.

Its not on his site, but he has it in stock.

 

I'm going to be putting the BG Syncroshift in my beaten tranny today. Grinds bad in 3rd and 4th. 4th pops out of gears while accelerating through hard turns. I'm not sure ifs shes even able to be helped until i rebuild my other one but I'll post what happens.

 

I used the Pennzoil Synchromesh which is a direct replacement for the GM version $3.99 @ select Autozone's and immediately noticed smoother shifts particularly when cold, no mis-shifts cuz easier to get into gear, and just better all-round performance. Great stuff!
