First gear grinding after tranny oil change
So, i get 1st gear grinds after i changed the tranny fluid. I used VAlvoline 80w-90. What could be the problem? Should i try a different brand of fluid? I dont want to use stuf like shock proof cause i will never get that out. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

Well i personally think Valvoline is crap. Get the Motul Gear 300, it'll work wonders, its fully synthetic the best stuff for Suby trannys
