Flush and Fill M6 V6 tranny...fluid?
I am going to do a flush and fill this weekend along with my diff swap. I know it just requires Dot 3/Dot 4 for the fluid...
I see people recommending Redline...but i dont see Dot3 or dot4 fluid through them.... What do you recommend?

I just did my transmission and differential 2 weeks ago. Here is what I purchased:
1x : http://www.amazon.com/ACDelco-10-400...ilpage_o06_s00 1x : http://www.amazon.com/Plews-55001-Lu...ilpage_o06_s00 3x : http://www.amazon.com/Mobil-104361-7...ilpage_o06_s00 Although, I didn't not really enjoy that quart pump, the tube was NOT long enough to reach all of the fluid in the Mobil 1 bottles. 3.3 oz of that ACDelco fluid goes in the diff, then top off with the 1 quart bottle. The other 2 quart bottles go into the transmission. Hope that helps!

I just used Mobil-1 full synthetic. When you fill it, add a smidgen more than the 1.9 liters suggested. I did and I noticed that the shifting became a lot smoother.
