    trans fluid

    I am changing all fluids in my E30 318is, i like to only use Mobil 1 oils. I use full synthetic mobil 1 oil, i got Mobil1 Synthetic Gear Lubricant LS 75W-90 made for limited slip rear ends, now i am trying to find a mobil 1 manual transmission fluid but not having luck. Does anyone know if they make a good transmission fluid that will work in my 91 318is 5spd trans?

    If you're set on Mobil 1, you'll want this:


    The transmission in your car uses ATF from the factory.

        Your transmission takes ATF. Like MR 325 said.

          And really, you should get over M1. It's mediocre at best these days.
