RedLine has a new oil.
Looks like some good stuff! But I'll stick with Mobil1 EP for half the price.

Their mt-90 gear oil is amazing in the yaris, I've run it against all the off the shelf oils out there and it is hands down the best of them. It actually makes a significant improvement. I used other brands, then tried redline then switched back to a different brand(mechanic swapped my tranny and filled it with Lucas brand) only to come running back to Redline.

Ya! I put MT90 in my 85 Toyota 4x4 pu, and shifting went from clunk clunk to a hot knife thru butter. Good stuff!

I have used RedLine in my Yaris as well. I have had great results with it, Royal Purple, and AMSOIL. I have stuck with AMSOIL as the price is better than RedLine. If I really needed to be concerned with hard fast shifts constantly I might consider going back to it, but I am having great results with AMSOIL at the current time and the high rpm shifts as well as duration at high rpms. Great to see that RedLine is continuing to strive to improve rather than just sit on their laurels of the previously successful product.

Never used Redline for engine , but did for '08 Yaris and a 2000 Prizm ( Corolla ) with great results . No more clunking into reverse or notchiness / grinding when shifting .

I actually have had problems with the Redline MT-90. After I changed my transmission fluid I now get an occasional grind in 4th gear, only when the transmission has warmed up though. Maybe I didn't use it right? :\

Yeah, redline is great stuff.I just hit the 100000 km mark. I changed the gear box oil with Castrol and Nulon stuff, both crunch.I wasn't happy! But i got red line in and wow changing gear is like knife through butter i also put Nulon gear box treatment.It's shifting almost like when brand new
