That's the stuff I used for our 2004 9-5 Arc and our sleeping 1999 9-5 (broken balance shaft chain) years before. The smoother shifting improvement was immediate for the 2004 as the drained fluid was pretty watery and dark black/green. At 125K miles, maybe even original judging from the mentioned stubborn factory fastened filler plug. And yes... get out the grinder to cut down your Allen wrench to get enough clearance from a front frame member to the drain plug. As for reverse sloppiness, maybe a new front transmission dogbone link needed to take up some worn bushing play. Or shifter linkage adjustment? Best of luck! Kirk d
