Contour Enthusiasts Group Archives Forums Modifications Transaxle MTX - 75 TRANNY FLUID.

Update:

We have had a few pretty cold mornings here, below 40 degrees and I noticed that it was harder to get into gear. I started to drive off and it gave a notchy, almost grind going into second gear. After about a block or two of driving the feeling is gone and of course once the car is up to operating temperature it is gone.

So, cold climates beware, don't use MaxGear unless you warm up the car first, or maybe if you cut it with a little bit of friction modifier.
Right now I'll live with it till summer unless it gets colder here. Then in the fall I can change it back out for some new fluid.
