So, ive done a synthetic oil change, and now id like to change my other oil fluids on my gsx. Just wondering what fluid to use and how many different places do i use it. Ive heard manual transmission fluid, Trans-axle fluid, rear differential fluid? Can the same fluid be used with any of these and how much goes in each spot?

Transmission fluid/ trans axle fluid/ rear differential fluid? is that all the spots?

You are on the right track, as far as drive train fluids, Tranmission fluid, and for us AWD guys Transfer case fluid, and Rear diff fluid.

I would do more research on the forum for what type how much and where to add fluid, there is no one fluid that everyone uses, there are preferences and there are reason for the preferences:
