Default Problems using AMSOIL in A4 tranny & rear

Will slippage occur if I use AMSOIL ATF in my A4??
Too slippery? or stay with stock fluid?

AND, if I change the rear, do I need to ADD the friction modifier???

Thanks.

I have not had any problems since I changed over to Amsoil in both my transmission and rear differential in my C5.

The ATF meets or exceeds the specifications for Dexron III that is factory fill. The Series 2000 gear lubes do not need limited slip additives to be added.
