Quick question:

My owner's manual states that 80W-90 GL4 gear oil is to be used.

The only GL-4 gear oil I can find in my area is a 75W-90. Am I okay to use it. I know people with my type of car use the Redline MT-90 in their transmissions, and it's 75W-90 (BTW, I can't get redline around here either).

I'm assuming the answer is yes, but I wanted to double check here.

Thanks.
