hey its cool, we all gotta start sometime. the Mercon V is a synthetic blend fluid. people use synthetic in manual transmissions because it lower the friction inside and can allow more power to get transferred to the driveshaft. note were talking like 1-2hp at the most i would say. i was reading about the CTS-V that races in the SCCA speed series, and they use a t-56 transmission with an oil cooler. so ya it can get hot when you drive the piss out of a manual.

chevylover: where is castro valley, never heard of it. ca is a fun state, i learn about new cities everyday and ive lived here my whole life.

Yeah draining the tranny on a 3650 is not that difficult, filling is a different story. You have to remove the shifter boot from the inside of the car and run a tube off a funnel to pour the fluid into the fill hole. Or buy a 5 dollar tool that sucks up the fluid and then you can pump it into the tranny.

Good luck.

The pumps that fit on the bottles are the way to go.

Screw taking the shifter off.
