    Synchromax Questions

    Anyone use royal purple synchromax for their G56?

    Been researching it, seen some like it and I should use 7 quarts.

    Any info good or bad.

    7 quarts is a great thing to do in a G56.

    As for the fluid, there are better options out there.

    What other fluids would be recommended?

    Hot Shot's G56 fluid just came out and it's great.

    Amsoil is another great choice if you get the correct fluid.

    Amsoil is what I use in my personal truck(G56).

    We're dealers for both if you decide you'd like to order either.

    We sell the Royal Purple too if you're wanting to use it.

    Amsoil calls for their ATF SYNTHETIC, from what I've been reading people are using their Manual Transmission & Transaxle Gear Lube 75W-90.

    Seems like a pretty big swing from trans fluid to a gear oil.

    I and many others use the Amsoil 75-90 transmission GL4 fluid. When Mercedes-Benz designed the G56 they spec'd it for 50wt fluid but FCA/Mopar decided to run ATF+4 in it. The 75-90 is actually closest to the weight that MB designed it to run on. The GL4 is needed due to the brass that's inside. *Using anything other than ATF+4 is completely up to the customer and solely their responsibility.*

    2 quarts/Front and 4 quarts/Rear.
    This fluid is a different type than what goes into the differentials.
