Hi Guys,
Just getting around to finish the job.

I was wondering if I can use good old Mobil 1 Synthetic 75w90 LS gear oil as the transmission fluid?

Thanks,
Vidhu

Most of us use the factory fluid. Yes, its expensive but it seems to work the best. Here are a couple of links to previous discussions:

Transmission Fluid - really that hard?
