Gm Synchromesh

I know many members on this board swear by this stuff, so i went out to buy some today. I went to my local GM dealership and asked for a few bottles. Then he asks me what one I want. i guess there are numerous types of gm synchromesh. I didn't know what type so I didn't buy any. Just wondering, what type would work in my 90 tsi awd?

I only know of one Synchromesh.

GM, AC Delco and Pennzoil all have their own bottle of the exact same fluid.

I think GM dealerships started to sell the AC Delco bottles recently, so maybe this guy has some old and new bottles on the shelf?

Some of the fastest guys around are running BG ss and ssII

i thought there was only one too. he asked me what type of vechicle i had, what type of transmission, fwd or awd. the way he made it sound, is that there are many different types (maybe different grades?).

Maybe he was new?

I just went to my local auto parts extra and picked up a few bottles of the AC Delco synchromesh and have shifted really nicely ever since!

Good stuff, and cheap too. Might want to put a bit of something thicker in their with it though as the stuff is pretty thin in comparison to stock.

I worked at a GM dealership, and the only stuff i could find was the AC delco stuff. they have the syncromesh and another one that isnt as good.

How is this stuff comparable to a castrol synthetic gear oil? Is it better?

I've tried both, and for the dsm trannies, it seems to be alot better than the castrol synth.

I think there's 2 different types. There's one that's 30 bucks a bottle and one that is 7-8 bucks a bottle (This is from 4 years ago, so don't quote me).

$7-8 is the right price.
GM parts counter may try to sell it for double that - talk them down.

If remember correctly, the AC delco syncromesh was 6-8 dollars a bottle, and the other stuff (which isn't as good for some reason) is more expensive. i think it was in the 10-15 dollar range

I for one did not like that in my tranny AT ALL!!

It hardly shifted, it was way too tight feeling and was honestly barely drivable.

just a heads up.
