Hi,

Please pardon me if I don't immediately jump on the bandwagon after
reading your "universe of one" test results. However, I AM glad you
haven't dropped the gearbox right out of your car while you "beat the
crap out of it." I'm certain this mystery man "Uncle Scotty" and his
"cocktail" are the saving grace there. Too bad it can't be proven from
your results.

Your 30wt analogy is invalid. Motor oil is far from transmission fluid.

Get back to me when you understand the point I was making.

In all fairness, 'Uncle Scotty' is a very knowledgable, and evidently
experienced, 'character' who posts regularly at NASIOC. While he
frequently comes off as a curmudgeon, I suspect his 'cocktail' is not
particularly 'bad'. Of course, your sensible to promote caution - since
ther is no testing as to whether one component's additives may be
antagonistic to additives in the other componenent's, though it's hard
to see how the mix could be horrible. personally, I would only try it
AFTER trying Redline or Royal Purple or other quality name brands for
hundreds - if not several thousand - miles first. A lot of folks with
the pre-06 trannies have reported good results with Redline 75-90NS
after a few thousand miles.

whatever
