last summer I had a grind in second gear when shifting at higher rpm's so I wanted to change my tranny fluid. I searched around and it sounded like the redline D4 ATF was the best so I went with that. I drained out the old, put in some cheapo fluid to flush out any old, ran it for a while, drained it, and put in the redline. It feels great now, and no more grinds going into second. Awhile ago there was a thread saying tremec stated not to use redline in their trannys, but its working awsome and theres no way in hell Im draining $50 worth of fluid out of my car. maybe someone else will say for sure.
