Trans lube for bad synchros

[Ed Kellock]

A few years ago I was beginning to get some whine from the trans in my Coupe GT.  I replaced the fluid with Redline mixed with Militec and it whines no more.

Check out www.militec.com for more info on Militec.  No affiliation, I've just used it and it seems to have been beneficial.  

Redline has a product called Shockproof that is intended for racing applications.  I haven't used it but know of a couple people that have used it for regular street driving and they don't have any problems.

My latest quattro, a 5K has a noisy second gear once warm.  Unless shifted very slowly it grinds going into second.  My thought is a heavier than normal non synthetic fluid change in the gearbox, but I thought others might have other experiences.
