redline sythetic made all the differeance, great stuff, 80k miles on it, and no leak issues either. the tranny did not shift worth sh*t until I switched to redline, prior to that a full change of stalube gear oil did not resolve the probelm, red line did and it is the correct stuff for the 914 tranny.
