Tranny chatter?

Tranny chatter?
Go too tremec's website

Go too FAQ's

T-5 lube ...world class T-5 's synchromesh (prevents bushing and synchro de lamination)

T-5 lube.... Non world class T-5 's dexIII (no laminated bushings or syncros)

Either will work one is less expensive.

Wrong-
The WC T-5 uses ATF as per section 2, item 4 of the Tremec PDF.
http://www.tremec.com/anexos/TRSM-T5-0510-R1_173.pdf

AMC said to use DexIII, and burn'd up allot of T-4 -5 trannys(the WC T-5 is not anydangthing like the Jeep T-5 )
Borg-Warner would not back AMC on this issue and AMC had to pay for the burn'd up units.
That is why the 'stink-oil' was developed.
Somewhere in history there is a TSB warning NOT to use ATF in the T-4 /5.
Penn, Synco is good and I have been run'n Valvoline syn 75W-90 in mine for many-many years.
Stay with the Penn syncro.:chug:

Will do, thanks.
 
So are you all suggesting the chatter will go away with different oil, or that the use of incorrect oil has damaged the internals of his tranny? If so, what parts?

No promises/guarantees. Change to Pennzoil Syncromesh and see.
You got nut'n to lose at this stage.
