PENNZOIL SYNCHROMESH TRANSMISSION FLUID MANUAL
PENNZOIL SYNCHROMESH TRANSMISSION FLUID FULL

I did my 6sped MQ250 gearbox & it requires the same part number fluid which is called 'вЂњhigh-performance transmission oilвЂќ by VW. Low temperature viscosity in a -40вЊ Brookfield test of 50,000 cPs maximum, less than a 75W gear oil and the cold cranking viscosity less than a typical conventional SAE 5W engine oil.вЂ‹вЂ‹ This engine oil type additive will emulsify water and polar contamination sufficiently to handle contamination levels above 0.5% water.ДЄnglamol 6091 - Detergent, friction modifier, extreme pressure agent, seal swell, anti-wear, anti-oxidant.Д¬hemical Composition - Magnesium sulphonate, alkenyl amide, alkenyl ester sulphide, alkenyl phosphite, alkylbenzene, hecterocyclic ether, zinc dithiophosphate.Дў Pour point is less than -39вЊ. Corrosion protection is added to help protect your transmission.ДЎ The Anglamol 6091 additive system contains approximately twice the sulfonate detergent levels as current generation PCMO, 4500 ppm as magnesium of magnesium sulfonate.

This high quality manual transmission fluid is formulated for good low temperature flow to maintain shift characteristics even after a cold night2. Chrysler manual transmission fluid specification MS-9224 is also met. PennzoilВ® Synchromesh Fluid meets General Motors specification 9985648 for use where GM part numbers 12345349 or 12345577 are called out for use. PennzoilВ® Synchromesh Fluid also offers synchronizer compatibility for performance in manual transmissions, specifically to fulfill the needs of Chrysler, GM, Honda and other transmission requirements. Containing a high detergent additive system, it helps cope with water, dust, dirt, and any other small deposits you might encounter on or off-road1. PennzoilВ® Synchromesh Fluid is designed to offer optimal protection for moderately loaded gears in manual transmissions. I just want to caution against tuner shop 75w-90 of any brand, especially dual rated GL-4&5, these fluids are not good MT oils and at 90 weight FAR too thick, 2x as thick as oem and still worse in cold, like 6x thicker than Synchromesh, maybe 10x thicker than oem MTF or ATF 9cSt at +100c, it was developed to replace a whole range of Man Trans Fluids, inc old school 10w-30 motor oil (!)ДЇor gear oil GL-5 75w-90 Mobil 1 is fine. What I'd seriously recommend in a GL-4 is Pennzoil / GM Synchromesh which is state of the art, available everyplace and dirt cheap. Opie Oils in UK has a great online catalogue, the easiest reading directory to Euro oils that I know of.

There are some motorcycle gearbox oils like Fuchs Full Ester that are very suitable, just look for 'GL-4' pref w/o 'GL-5' and under 10cSt, look up the service specs and +100c visc on the oil company PDS product data sheet on the web. It might make a noisy trans a little bit quieter, but as far as wear control and power handling it is not necessary. So even a 'lightweight' 80 MTL is still a good bit thicker than VW oem fluid.ДЄnything thicker than OEM fluid will be crap in cold, and maybe harm MPG. Redline now has three MTLs, an 80, 85, and 90 weight. There are a few other lightweight single purpose GL-4 MTFs on the aftermarket. Redline has excellent white paper info on their site. Right now, as the temps dip down to -20c at night, 2nd is kinda notchy with the synchromesh, but acceptable after the transmission warms - I would not want to go any more viscous for this transmission in these temps.ДЄs I am concerned about Hypoid gears, I might switch out to something thicker in the summer.Д¬onsider also that Scott Dewitt knows 01E transmissions better than most, and he fills them, in high HP RWD applications with Titan Sintofluid - a fluid that is thinner than synchromesh.The retailer should be more specific for the sake of the customer, it's not a MTF. I switched to GM synchromesh after much research into EP additives and CsT values for the stock fluid, different synchromesh fluids and synthetic diff lubes. Once it started to get cold though, it made shifting a chore. I ran a 75w90 synth lube this summer, and it was OK - a little notchy in 2nd when cold, but otherwise OK. The issue is that the high viscosity that protects the diff gears inhibits function in the synchro cones, and thinner fluid which makes the synchros work well may not protect the diff gears enough. The challenge with the Passat manual (5 or 6, doesn't matter) is that the fluid needs to lube everything which rotates, protect the hypoid gears in the diff, and provide the right viscosity for the synchros to function well. I'm running it in my DQS 6 speed conversion.
