Find the FSM for your drivetrain. Look up the temperature range where the vehicle is. The FSM specifies the viscosity you should be using for your temperature range.

I can't help you any more than that since you did not say what car this is.

as far as the trans goes. I currently use redline mt-90, however the cold shifting sucks. I would try out amsoil for tranny fluid
