I have done a little research through the archives on which fluid to use. I now know more about it than I wanted to know, and am more confused than when I started!
I guess there are three choices:
The GM recommended fluid.
The Castrol 10W60. Is this actually engine oil?
Redline MTL.
I can get any of these. Chevy dealer is the closest. BMW dealer 5 minutes further up the road. Redline I can get from Summit which would be delivered to my door. Prices are within $5 of each other for 3 quarts so price is not really a consideration.
Which fluid will give me the longest life and smoothest operation from my ZF?
