Manual Transmission Fluid
Manual transmission fluid helps cool the transmission down and add lubrication for manual transmission (stick-shift) vehicles. As you drive your vehicle, the transmission fluid will slowly become contaminated with more moisture, at which point it will eventually need to be replaced or flushed.
Signs of bad manual transmission fluid
- Fluid becomes dark
- Abnormal noises coming from the transmission
