I changed it to Mobil 1 syn. But I would use Amsoil or Royal Purple, also.

I've been running Royal Purple Synchromax for 40k+ miles now. I've got 112k miles on my 3650 and it's still going strong.

Default AMSOil Syn ATF

I use AmSOil ATF in my 2009 GT manual 5 speed trany. Shifts smooth. The books says Mercon V and the AMSOil AFT is the syn replacement for it.
I also run AmSoil 5W-20 syn in the engine.

Default vs Mercon V

bottle says "AMSOIL Synthetic ATF" this is the one to use instead of Mercon V.

Does that mean you can get us some good deals on amsoil? Or maybe a group buy sometime?

Mobil1 ATF! Much smoother shifting.
