I have used all of them

If you are keeping the car , Amsoil is still my favorite. It just seems to lube better, give fantastic shifts and stay that way for a long time. make sure to buy a preferred membership $20 to save a bunch. You will make it back on your first case.

Remember a strong magnet can also go a long way to protecting a transmission . The magnets used from stock are useful but not as strong as needed.
