Compatible with GL-1, GL-3, and GL-4 specs, it safeguards brass synchros by eliminating harmful sulfurs found in GL-5 oils. Trusted by top automotive brands and designed for both high and low-mile transmissions, this 1-gallon jug ensures optimal performance and longevity for your vehicle’s gearbox. ## Description Since most GL-5 gear oils for differentials are too slippery for manual transmissions, Red Line offers these products that ensure proper shifting while providing ultimate wear protection. Appropriate coefficient of friction for most manual transmission synchronizers. Red Line offers lubricants to pinpoint nearly every transmission application. MTL is not for use in differentials with hypoid gears. Excellent gear and synchro protection, balanced slipperiness for easier shifting in cold climates. Excellent for high and low-mile transmissions. Compatible with petroleum and other synthetics. Satisfies the gear oil viscosity requirements of 70W, 75W, 80W, and motor oil viscosities of SAE 30, 10W30, and 5W30. Recommended for GL-1, GL-3, and GL-4 applications as well as where most special synchromesh fluids are specified. Review: Very good manual transmission fluid - Really like this 75w80 GL-4 MTF from Redline. Works better in my Honda/Acura than Torco MTF. The Torco fluid is really good stuff (I think better) but I picked up a vibration out of 2nd gear, perhaps it was just too slick for the differential or other MT components. This Redline 75w80 GL-4 MTF is of a lower viscosity than the Torco and seems pretty comparable (only in viscosity) to the Honda HG MTF which sounded horrible in my car and wasn't very smooth. My service manual originally recommended 10w-30 motor oil for the MT but then Honda came out with the MTF HG stuff which I tried and immediately switched it out. This Redline is really good stuff and is in the high quality category of Torco, Motul, Mobile One, Amsoil. It's really good, but generally there are certain lubricants that will work better in your car or motorcycle than others. You just have to try them out and unfortunately that can get pretty expensive, since this gallon option was basically $15.60 a quart. Do the research and limit your selections. Since the manual recommends 30k transmission oil changes, this long interval would justify the higher price per quart. Review: Super Fast Delivery and Great Product - Used in my Jeep Wrangler 1998 Renegade. Transmission is like new no more grinding! ## Features - HIGH PERFORMANCE - Gear protection and longer synchro life. Recommended for GL-1, GL-3, and GL-4 applications, as well as where most special synchromesh fluids are specified - OFFERS QUICKER SHIFTS - MLT Gear Oil with balanced friction control for most manual transmission synchronizers. Other synthetic gear oils are often too slippery - SAFE FOR BRASS SYNCHROS - GL-4 Gear Oil lacks the reactive sulfurs found in most GL-5 oils that cause damage.

I've had very good luck with it. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very good manual transmission fluid *by F***K on 26 March 2019* Really like this 75w80 GL-4 MTF from Redline.
