has anyone tried running synthetic ATF in the L ? does anyone think it actually reduces power loss in the transmission / less wear ?

 

I had a local 'quik-lube' shop pump in Redline's D4 fluid while pumping the OEM fluid out at 20,700 miles(Feb., 2002) and now am at 60,100 miles in my 01L.

My trans line pressure is increased(suppose to be 'bad' for it?), it has been 1/4-miled(burn-outs too), driven daily(I down-shift it out of OD several times a day) and(so far ) it has been trouble-free. No slippage, etc. just good, firm shifts and it delivers 15 mpmg too.

I would definitely do it!
