Hey Bro,
IMO your getting good advice here, I use Amsoil 10-30 for engine, going to Redline MTL for tranny and LE607 for diff. Use genuine Honda pcx filters designed especially for our car and can be purchased at marketplace.

What kinda electronics u got in your S?
Thanks for your help with my electrical problem last month. Its all workin fine now.
Bronx, NYC

Are you asking about engine oil?

There are a variety of Redline diff fluids available. For every day "all-season" driving the 75W-90 (same viscosity spec as the commonly used Mobil 1) should be fine. The 75W-140 is another choice but I'm not sure that the NYC climate really requires something of that nature for regular use.

All of our pics in the marketplace show the same bottle of 75w-90 but that's only because we haven't gotten around to updating the other images yet. I apologize if that's a little confusing.

Yes engine oil....

LE stuff from ricks seems to be a little cheaper, But I want the best for my car, so I dont mind going with the more expensive one....So whats the consensus....LE or Redline 10W 30?

Thanks again fellas, I love this forum.
