Honestly, my Svart 701s gearbox seems to work the best with the motorex. Tried the red Motul for a season, it was fine but the motorex was better when hot.
Pros: better when hot
Cons: Motul was fine

Diffs and transfer case are synthetic Valvoline.
I think that’s normal for transmissions. I run 4T Motorex in my 2stroke ktm 300 trans per the manual.
Pros: normal for transmissions
Cons: moly is no good
That’s being said, I did a TON of reading on this and landed on using LiquiMoly 75w90 GL4+ and it has really helped with shifting.
Pros: helped with shifting
Vehicle:
Porsche 911
I just did my differential and tranny oil change a few months ago, did Motul Gear 300 75W90 in both.
Pros: smooth oil change
What's wrong with the Motorcraft gear oil? Serious question. I've done a drain and fill and it operates great.
Pros: operates great
I use the Liqui Moly Top Tec MTF 5400 (75w-90) in my focus st after running motul, ravenol, and others and so far it's the best feeling + has significantly quieted down my transmission (I have a lwfw and spec clutch + lsd)
Pros: best feeling, quieted transmission
Vehicle:
Ford Focus
Part number: TOP TEC MTF 5400
Redline Light ShockProof gear oil. Or Heavy Shockproof if you don't mind your gear changes being a bit notchy until the gearbox heats up.
Cons: gear changes notchy
I disagree with any redline product. I've had 3 VW's always used VW gear oil, never a tranny problem. My Scirocco has 160,000 miles and the tranny has never been touched. Whenever I hear of someone haveing major tranny problems needing a rebuild I've always asked if they were using Redline, and the answer is always yes. See, it is much too slippery for VW transmissions. Yeah your gonna clear up your second gear grind and smooth up the shifts but you causing damage to other parts of the tranny like bearings.
Pros: smooth up the shifts
Cons: damage to bearings
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Scirocco
Mileage: 160000 km
