  • '91 Audi Coupe 7A Manual Transmission and Rear Gear Oil

    The manual transmission hooked up to 7A has 310,000 miles. The fluid has only been changed once at about 120,000 miles. There are no leaks.

    Do I need to change the MTF and gear oil? Actually, never mind! I want to change the MTF and rear axle oil.

    I used Audi oil long ago that is no longer available. I remember using Redline and shifting was noticeably poor in cold weather. I changed back to Audi oil (G50?) and shifting improved greatly.

    What should I use this time around. I live in a 4 season environment and can drop as low as -10 Fahrenheit.

    I see below listed:

    Moly 75W90 Fully Synthetic Hypoid Gear Oil
    Motul Gear 300 LS 75W90 (1 Liter) - Motul 105778
    Audi VW Gear Oil Synthetic 75W90 - Genuine VW Audi G052145S2

    Mobil 1 104361 75W-90 Synthetic Gear Lube

    Thank you!

    Can you get Castrol syntrax 75/90? Very good stuff. Just don't use a GL5 in your gearbox due to sulphur and brass synchro. Rear diff EP90 gl5 of high quality.
