Nice, thanks man I'll have to grab one for my 50k trans service
I've always previously used redline shockproof in my previous manuals. This time around i used motul gear 300 75w90. Its definitely an improvement over the OEM fluid. The trans doesn't have that whine sound when decelerating in traffic.

I'll report back with some feedback. It should be cooling off soon here on Long Island, NY.I'm very curious how the transmission fluid does in the colder temps.
But
Are you certain only Fuchs 75w meets the specs and not 75w80? Or is it more than just the viscosity rating? Thanks Dave!
Fuchs selection for our cars is the same but I have locked the selection to USA GTI:-

Thanks Dave I stand corrected.
Interestingly, Fuchs only mentions LSDs in their LS fluid. Do you think those of us with a mechanical LSD could benefit or is it better to maintain oem spec?
