Gaerbox oil
Have 1997 golf with a 020 transmision.My quistion is if Valvoline Gear Oil
sae 75w-90 GL-5 will be good oil for the transmision.VW manuel says to use 75w-90 GL-4.Will it make any diffrence ? What is the diffrence between the GL-4 and GL-5 anyway ?  We don't have the redline oil here where I live that everybody's been talking about.Thanks for reading . JO.

Re: Gaerbox oil
actually i prefer mobile one synthetic gear lube 75-90 more than redline due to redline supposedly gets thinner with higher trans temps (extended driving or racing)
gl4 is older than gl5 the time at which your car was produced gl4 was the best. now gl5 is the best.
