I had similar results.  After the tranny swap, shifting into 2nd was difficult
when the weather turned cooler with the dine GL-4 stuff.  I put the Redline
into the tranny about October and the cold shifting is not only possible, but
smooth.


I ordered a case directly from Redline, except they recommended MT-90 instead
of MTL for the Vanagon.
