I'm almost sure it uses ATF. A lot of newer manuals are like that.

your tranny uses ATF. gear oil goes in the differential. change both.

Changed T-5 ATF Fluid Today


So, the interwebz haz lotz of informationz about fluid in the T-5.

According to a Tremec tech on another board, the tremec T5 has only been tested with Dexron-III ATF and Mobil 1 synthetic.

Other synthetic oils have been found to damage the paper/fiber blocker ring on 1st gear.

Armed with that information, I changed my fluid today with Mobil 1 synthetic ATF.

A couple of tips. The drain plugs take 3/8" wrench. I pulled the lower drainplug first, and all the "glugging" made a mess. Next time I'll pull the fill plug before I pull the drain plug.

The trans took almost 3qts of fluid before it was running down the side. I did not get in the car and "run it through the gears" before topping off.

Shifting great!
