Ive got an all stock 95 Talon TSI AWD. I’m looking to change my differential fluid, transmission fluid, and transfer case fluid. What do you guys recommend? Thought about going oem but I hear a lot of talks of running redline. Someone help me I’ve looked at too many different posts
 
Both OEM Diaqueen & Redline are suprerior lubricants. The difference between one from the other would be personal preference (& price). If it was me I pick the one which costs least. One of my DSM's is filled with Diaqueen & my other is running Redline.
 
How I'd do it since I have a 99 awd so we're basically the same:

-Change Manual Transaxle fluid every 30000 miles
- 2.3 qt
- (API GL-4 SAE 75W-90 (Red Line MT-90))

-Change Transfer Case fluid every 30000 miles
- 0.55 qt
- (API GL-4 SAE 75W-90 (Red Line Heavy ShockProof))

-Change Rear Differential fluid every 30000 miles
- 0.95 qt
- (API GL-5 SAE 90, 85W-90 or 80W-90 (Red Line Heavy ShockProof))
 
For the transmission, I have run everything from diaqueen, redline, synchromesh, lucas, you name it. The one I have had the best results with by far is the diaqueen. The one specifically designed for the Evo 6 speed transmissions. That stuff is gold, and its priced like it too. but its worth every penny.

From what I have found, it only comes in the gallon container.

Redline is what I have run in everything else. It has managed to keep my dying T-case alive from some time now LOL
