Not sure how but I had been using Sta Lube GL4 in my tranny, switched to Sta Lube GL5 this season, what a difference.

Feels more slippery (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif)

GL4 is great to use . . . If your goal is to destroy your differential.

914’s don’t have a transmission . . . They have a transaxle which contains a differential . . . Which requires GL5.
