Hey guys,

Changing my Transmission oil and need to know what’s the best performing oil and weight (i.e. 75w-90, 80w-90, 85w-90, GL-3, 4, or 5, etc…)

I keep getting conflicting answers…
I have 85w-90 Sta-Lube in garage but wondering if there is better? My Transmission; IRS Type-1 Transaxle.

thanks

80w90 gear oil is what is recommended by VW.
Some sources recommend 75w90 synthetic gear oil as well.

I use 85w-90 in mine.
