    Red Line MTL on amazon.com is $12.49 a quart, free shipping, less than a week delivery.

    ^ I guess I'm turned off by some of the comments on Redline MTL above. Though there are a lot of reviews on the other site of satisfied Redline users.

    Well put. I did a lot of research last night on transmission fluid in general and have come to the conclusion you recommended a long time ago. :lol:

    I'll use the Redline MTL and stop bothering people. The Motul is tempting and GL4/GL5 but I'll stick with the Redline and be happy. The ENOS oil listed earlier is a GL5 and that would worry me even though it may be okay, plus I don't think I would have liked the thicker viscosity this winter. I've also not really been satisfied with RP in the past.

    Thanks for the help again.
