FAQs

Is this oil suitable for an automatic transmission?

No, this fluid is strictly for manual transmission gearboxes. Automatic transmissions require dedicated Automatic Transmission Fluid (ATF).

Can I use this if my manual asks for GL-5?

No. Using a GL-4 fluid when GL-5 is specified may not provide adequate protection for hypoid gears, and vice versa, using GL-5 in a GL-4 gearbox can damage brass synchros.

Is this a synthetic oil?

No, this is a high-quality mineral-based transmission fluid.

How often should I change this fluid?

This is described as a 'Fill for Life' fluid by the manufacturer; however, consult your vehicle maintenance schedule as driving conditions may necessitate periodic changes.

Does this fluid come in other weights?

The KAS010 product code refers specifically to the 80W-90 mineral formulation.

Troubleshooting

Notchy gear shifting after fluid change

Verify that your vehicle specifically requires an API GL-4 fluid. Some modern transmissions require specific synthetic blends or different viscosities.

Fluid leakage from the gearbox

Inspect seals and gaskets. If leakage occurs, do not top up; repair the mechanical leak first to prevent environmental damage and transmission failure.
