Ok sounds good! It'll be good to have more usage experiences.

My take on fluid swapping is to try and improve longevity, because in my experience the OEM fluid seems to deteriorate too quickly. In terms of improvements towards synchro behavior alot of m2 guys have said it's improved their shifting into first gear and any knotchiness which is already a good sign.


I'll know if it's any good if my 1-2 shifts stay smooth (mine just felt like it was resisting me slightly, no grinding or any weird popping out of gears) and the knotchiness stays away.
