AX-5 popping gears

[Mike Gibbs]

After changing my fluid in my ax-5, it seems to be quite difficult to shift into 2nd and 4th gear. When I get into gear it will pop out and I have to hold the shifter for a few. Before I changed the fluid, it would grind getting it into 2nd only but would stay. All other gears were a breeze. Today backing up into my garage reverse popped out. 1st, 3rd, & 5th have no issues. Any ideas?

Ya what fluid is it in? I use redline mt-90 in my ax-5. I remember once I swapped to that gear fluid, it was much smoother shifting gears.

Interesting. I'd try MT-90.

Just ordered. Funny, 10w-30 has never done this before. Hopefully, this will be the cure.
