Ok. I have a 96 manual and i'm getting close to rolling the odometer for the first time so i figured it was time to change the fluid in the trans. What's everyone using? Who should i call? This is my daily driver and i need it to last a while. Thanks everyone

Thats what it says in the chiltons as well... I was really hoping for some possible info like the weight as well... It seems rather runny for gear oil. Thanks for the reply

The Isuzu calls for Syncromesh....... everyone who's put something other then that in, has had problems.
The Getrag calls for ATF...... GM
had a service bulletin for running a Saturn gear lube...... but any Dextron ATF will work.
