What trans fluid are you using? Got a guy in town that is having some issues going into reverse.

[PSiedTSi]

Synchromesh when I last heard.

Mitsu fluid / or the stuff Tintmasters sells (emos?)

If only fluids would rebuild shifting problems... hahaha

Lulz.

[aliengotpsi]

DO NOT PUT ATF IN AN EVO!!!

I dont have problems with mine.. Try the stuff From Tintmasters!

[ihaveaids]

Shameless plug eh?

[KA-T_240]

There have been a large number of us that have had very good luck with Eneos gear oil. It is also cheaper then any of the synthetic transmission fluid that parts stores sell. It is available at tintmasters for IIRC $11 a quart(do not quote me on this).

[ihaveaids]

Lol ya I was pretty much just curious as to what brand it was etc. Wanted more info than "Buy the stuff from Tintmasters!!!11!"

[amicheze]

I was actually looking for something too. I feel like I'm working out when I'm shifting.

let your car warm up a bit before you go driving.

Cause your tranny fluid is going to "warm up" sitting at idle.... It may increase in temp a small amount from the eat of the engine.

Sure is...especially since Kevin owns SLD, does a lot of things with SLS....totally shameless of him to plug another shop.

BTW, he meant Eneos (the brand that TM sells)
