its time for a fluid change in my tranny and rear axle what weight should i use. i was thinking that the lucas gear oil 75w 90 looked good i use other lucas products and ive been very pleased with there performance.

I'd use Red line synthetic gear oil for the diff. Sure it's more pricey, but think how often you change rear end oil, and how much (volume) you're going to need... Then it's not so pricey.

I think the later T5's were spec'ed to take ATF. I know, sounds weird, but it's what I heard. Check if your year is meant to take that or not (or see what's in it first..)
