Tranny´fluid G50

Hi all,

I know that tere are a lot of threads on this question, but I have just received some new tranny fluid for my G-50 non LSD. It is Redline 75W90.

I know now that I should have ordered the 75W90 for a car without LSD.

It is oexpensive for me to send the lube back to the UK from Denmark.

My question is; Is it ok for me to fill my G50 with the Redline 75W90?

Thanks a lot.

Redline should be fine with your G50. Most here go with the Mobil1 Delvac, though. But the Redline is also very good, I'd say you'll be just fine.

Don't see why it would be a problem. It is a high quality fluid with the correct GL5 rating. I have seen other threads where this was used and the owner was happy with he fluid. I used standard Mobil 1 75-90 first 2 changes and then switched to Mobil Delvac 1 75-90. I say go for it. Just get the fill plug out first

Thanks all,

Looks like I wont ruin anything by putting the normal redline 75W90 in my non LSD G50 tranny, eventhough there seems to be a bit confusion about whether the 75w90ns works for LSD and 75w90 works for non LSD.

Have a great day!
