    what type of transmission fluid should i use?

    So i have 1990 325i 5 spd and shifts hard when cold. Ive been looking everywhere for which fluid to use but no one has answer. I can't tell what kind of label i have on my tranny theres a label but looks faded color.

            I was not impressed with redline - everyone else seem to love it. Maybe it's my g265.

                      It is your 265! The 265 is a great bulletproof gearbox, if it is acting funky at all it is probably time for a rebuild.

                      The way I see it this, Jim Blanton at Performance gearing is arguably the best BMW gearbox guy around. When I got my gearbox back from him there was a big note on the side of it "REDLINE MTL ONLY"
