Hey everyone,

Great forum! I just picked up an '01 V-6 Mustang, Black on Black. I was just wondering what everyone's running, as far as oil, differential lube, and tranny fluid. I know the oil called for is 5W-20, but I'd like to know if anyone's using 5W-30 synthetic in theirs. Also, I know that the GT is supposed to have synthetic in the rear end, and I think in the transmission, but is anyone running synthetic in their V-6 rears and tranny? I always swith to synthetic everything in our vehicles, and was just wondering.

Thanks in advance.

I have 68k miles and have used nothing in my stang but standard oils and lubes. No blends or synthetics.
