NM6 fluid change
Hello gang, I'm planning on changing my 6 speed transmission fluid and would like to find out if using the GM brand is the best choice and what steps should be observed when doing the fluid change. My 98 coupe has 90K miles and it never been changed. I've heard that Amsoil is best for a 6 speed Trans but is their a part number that I should stick to?
Thanks

Just open the driver's side fill port, then put your pan under the tranny, then open the passenger side drain.
After draining for 10 or 15 mins, put the drain plug back in. Pump the new oil into the fill port untill it runs out a little. Put the fill plug back in.
Some people like to try and over fill the case with ATF, but IMHO it is not needed.
