Anyone running this? I believe it is gl-4 rated and is much less rt now on amazon than Pennzoil?

I ran it for a while, I use valvoline oils in all my gassers. I ran it for a while and switched back to Penzoil synchromesh, Penzoil seems to be so much smoother which os probably my imagination. I don’t know what amazon has but I bought the Penzoil at my local Napa for $9.99 per quart. So $20 for a transmission oil change that last about 100k.

I've run it in five separate manual tdis, all ran well with it.

I've used both the Valvoline and Pennzoil Synchromesh fluid. Both work great, can't say I've noticed any difference between them.
