Is anyone running synthetic oil of any type in there six speed? I have an '09 that I would like to switch over. Is the capacity of the transmission listed in the owners manual?

I put synthetic gear oil in both my previous cars, and it made a big difference in the winter. I'm interested to know the answer about this, too. (I don't trust the dealer near me to actually change the fluid over, I'd rather do it myself if I can)

There's a guy on NICO (PEZI720) he's the official AMSOIL dealer. Ask him about prices and stuff, he might have some good deals going on for oil.

I have not changed it yet but the only 75W80 synthetic I have been able to find so far is Redline.

The Amzoil site does not show any 75W80 gear oil. Am I missing something?
