just loaded it in, that mechanic that said my oil was ok is a joke, it was dark brown (smelled like gl5) and had itty bitty little specks in it mixed with pulverized steel..

It's working much better especially with shifting and smoothness of operation, it's still making noise but considering it threw chunks that's to be expected..

Thats definitely worth repeating! Amsol is AMAZING stuff. After following Jeffys link a while back, and reading the tech reports. Then going deeper down the rabbit hole, and reading all the other tech/lab reports, then watching the videos, and then trying it my vehicles, well.... long story short, im a dealer now. I have ordered the Severe Gear for my AX5. Havent put it in yet.
