Just an observation; the word “cheap” has come up several times in this thread. The car you purchased is not “cheap”; the gearbox in that car is anything but “cheap" to replace; so why the focus on buying the lowest cost gear oil? Guess wrong on what you put in it, and you will add another term to your vocabulary: “painfully expensive”……………….jeez

Its also not as expensive as it sounds. $100 sounds like a lot but its only scheduled to be changed every 75k miles if i remember. I can spend that on gas in two weeks, no problem!!

If you have ever driven a car with automatic transmission, you know that there are two fundamental differences between the automatic and manual gearbox: no clutch pedal in a car with automatic transmission. There is no change of automatic transmission. After placing the transmission to the station, everything is automatic.
