    Nobody has answered because nobody understands you. Synchromesh? Synchromesh gears? I'm pretty certain the stock transmission is Synchromesh.

    In that case, I wouldn't suggest it. While it appears to work in DMS/MMC cars like the Eclipse and 3000GT, that probably comes from the fact that it was apparently formulated to meet a Chrysler specification.

    I would suggest using whatever your car calls for, since that varies depending on exactly what car you have, and what part we're talking about.

    Short answer: Probably not.

    to be honest i havent heard of a vehicle it doesnt work well in. but dont take that to mean it will work great or anything in all apps. just call some places that specialize in your car and ask them

    synchromesh is a great product, but it is a very thin lubricant. I have heard many cases of synchromesh doing wonders for synchros and lots of damage to the bearings over time. I wouldn't recommend using just synchromesh if the tranny calls for a thicker lubricant. and yes, we do put synchromesh in subaru's at my dealership if the case calls for it. i think subaru has it's own tranny additive though. i can check for you and pm you later
