Listees: I have read the numerous positive comments about the Redline (MT-5?) gear lube for our vanagon manual transmissions, but am having trouble finding it in Austin, TX. I've noticed that Mobil 1 75-90W (GL-5?) synthetic, and Valvoline synthetic blend gear lubes are readily available. I also happen to have a store credit at Pep Boys. Are they (especially Mobil 1) that bad compared to Redline, or do they still offer significant improvement over regular 90W gear oil? Please respond to me directly, as I am temporarily off the list. Thanks in advance! Cary
