Another synchro mesh story. I know there has been alot of hype about this stuff and i was very skeptical about what the results would be. I though i would let you guys/girls know about my results. The problem that i had was that my tranny was grinding into third gear at about 4 to 5000rpms so figured that this was the stuff for me. The exact fluid that i used was "GM Synchro Mesh Friction Modifier" my car (93 Si) took 2 Quartz. With out even realizing a month has passed and the grind is gone. It nolonger grinds into third gear and shifting from 1st to 2nd has become even smoother. I also just wanted to thank who ever found out that this stuff is good for hondas, it was a big help and also saved me alot of money.

i GM Synchromesh.

 

same here. i used the non modified by acident and it works great to. i used to have a grind into 3rd above 3500 and now it's gone.

 

just make sure its not the synthetic synchromesh!!

 

one of my buddies used to have a grind in 3rd. syncromesh and one month later and its gone. i just put some in my tranny the other day

 

Awesome story man. I went to two dealerships today and they didn't know what the **** I was talking about. I'm installing my EX transmission finally on wednesday...and I NEED two bottles of this ****. So i'm gonna call around until I find it. I'll let you know how it goes for me!

 

make sure to tell us where you got it as well. i, too have been looking around for this and can't seem to find it

 

any GM/Cheverolet dealer should have it in their parts department and here is the part number:
GM synchro Mesh Friction Modifier #12377916

haha i went to 3 and they had no idea... all 3 of the parts counter guys said "ok" and came back with 2 bottles of gear oil . i finally found it at this one dealership, when i walked in with a part # and a picture of the bottle.

 

i just added some on my b16 tranny
i heard it takes a while for it to break in
so far it feels the same for me.
but i will give it some time
For some reason my tranny took all 3 bottles of this stuff

 

the place that i went to didnt even no they had it but having the part # def helped.

yeah it will take at least 2 weeks of everyday driving for it to work in

 

yeah when i first put it in i was pissed cause i spend $20 bucks and it didn't do ****. my 3rd gear grind got worse for a few weeks, i retorqued my tranny mounts, and now after about 3 weeks its actually getting better

 

so this stuff is better than the MTF (honda manual tran. fluid)???

I just bought some the other day. The part number matches up, but the label on the bottle is different. Mine just says GM transmission fluid. HHmmm, its prolly a bottle thats been in the back for years.

 

how does this stuff work for trannies with LSDs? i have a itr tranny with a 3rd and 5ht gear at high rpms. any feedback?
