my03suby Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 03 WRX...what tranny oil should I use? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
my03suby Posted August 19, 2009 Author Share Posted August 19, 2009 ...anyone....? I only ask becasue since I've owned the car I haven't done a tranny flush, not even sure if the previous owner ever did. Plus, I've been having trouble shifting and it seems like maybe flushing the tranny and putting fresh oil in it will fix the prob....but I need to know what kind of oil...

OB99W Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 Perhaps you haven't gotten a response because you haven't told us which trans you have. Some details, please. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olnick Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 03 WRX...what tranny oil should I use? Well, you should use whatever oil you are comfortable with provided it is properly certified and meets the requirements listed in your owner's manual (also listed in the Haynes manual.) As far as a specific recommendation, some of us happen to like Red Line 75W90ns. I use it in my '95 Legacy tranny. The topic has been discussed over the years--use the search function and read what people say. Good luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I guess we're discussing a manual trans. In that case, flushing isn't commonly done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, I did a search, and apparently the topic came up not that long ago, with a familiar OP. http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/showthread.php?t=100409 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
