The guy who owns the shop which works on my cars uses AMSOIL series 2000 75W-90 in his own Saab manual transmission. He's been running AMSOIL gear lube for about 15 years now, and carries it in his shop.
Some shops recommend AMSOIL 20W-50.
A lot of folks like RedLine.
Saab now has their own synthetic manual transmission fluid, and it is the only synthetic they recommend.
Others complain about all synthetics---go figure.
In my opinion, if a transmission causes problems after changing to synthetic, then the problems already existed before the change.
But that is based on over 24 years of using and selling synthetics.--
On the other hand, many of the complaints are about the "feel" after a change, and that is subjective.
