Ok my Transmission died on the way home from the damn wrecking yard with my new tranny. Since I'm putting it in tomorrow morning I wanted to know what kinda of fluid I can put in it besides Redline I was considering That 80w90 gear oil or maybe 20-40 SAE engine oil. I'm not sure and if the oil is cool are there any pros and cons to using a thicker oil?

Why not Redline MTL or GL5 or whatever the rating is for the good ol tranny oil?"I'd probably take the E30 M3 in this case just because I love that little car, and how tanky that inline 6 is." - thecj
85 323i M TECH 1 S52 - ALPINEWEISS/SCHWARZE
88 M3 - LACHSSILBER/SCHWARZE
89 M3 - ALPINEWEISS II/M TECH CLOTH-ALCANTARA
91 M TECHNIC CABRIO TURBO - MACAOBLAU/M TECH CLOTH-LEATHER

just use Red Line MTL that has been tested over and over, and nothing can compare. that fluid just works really well in bmw transmissions.
