Odd question. .. but how does a dream shift? I have bad dreams. So if I use this fluid will my car shift like my dreams? If so ill stick with whats in it. Or is it a good dream for everyone? Idk if the fluid is user specific or if its a universal dream come true

Redline's website says they don't have a replacement fluid for the MT-82 transmission. If the manufacturer of the fluid doesn't say it'll work, that sort of screws any warranty claim doesn't it? Amsoil says the same and recommends using the Ford dual-clutch fluid. Interesting.

Kyle,

We don’t have a fluid recommendation for that application, because we don’t have a fluid meeting the Ford WSS-M2C200-D2 specification.
