Redline in a 6-speed for cold morning shifting, "test" results

[HammerESQ]

Thanks for adding to the discussion. I have been researching changing the fluid in mine to solve a notchy 1st to 2nd on a cold morning. What was the stock fluid? Mobil 1 or something I need to pickup at the dealer?

Thanks,
Eric

The part number on my receipt says:

4 000-043-304-71-SP TRANS OIL

So with a bit of research you can probably find a source for it (I couldn't and just had dealer change it). Here is another place to look...
