    There is some on eBay, and BimmerWorld has it in stock according to their website (at a huge price increase).
    I haven't called Bimmerworld, but I've been burned by their "in stock" messaging before.

        No issues on track? Isn't it thinner?

          I felt a little funny running it at first, but it's been great in every way, no compaints at all from my use or anyone I know. No need to find old bottles of MTFLT2 imo.

            I just bought some Pentosin FFL-4. Too lazy to install right now but want to give it a shot

              I'm about to fill my car with it as well, assuming I get my car together this weekend I'll report back.

                Not sure about the viscosity but it has been WAY better than Redline MTL and MT90. It is a little stiff when cold. Overall, shifts much better and had zero grinding or missed shifts since switching.

                  I've been using RAVENOL RHP Racing High Perform. Gear SAE 75W-90 and I can't say anything bad about it.

                    I use factory BMW fluid. Works, and don't have to think about it.

                      S3R has Pennzoil Synchomesh, about 500 miles in.

                      Replaced Redline MTL which replaced Pentosin FFL-4.

                      In a nutshell, if your 420G has been driven by idiots who participate in 420 festivities daily, this can help.

                      It's also cheap AF, found at AutoZone, and I don't mind swapping this out every other oil change it's like $20 bucks lmao

                        RAVENOL J1C1002 SAE 75W-80 MTF - MTF-2 Full Syn API GL-4. I use this in my ZF320, way better than oem fluid IMHO.
