Liqui Moly GL3+ 75w-80 Gearbox oil

[aussiem3]

Anyone using the above for the 6MT on the ///3? I am looking at replacing the factory oil with this. Any feedback or experience using this oil will be much appreciated.

I'm using redline mtl and it's fantastic but i do use the moly for oil and nothing but good things with that as well

Thank you for that. My only question is that BMW's transmission oil is GL4 75w-80 but the LM's is GL3+ 75w-80. But the LM GL4+ is 75w-90. Just wondering that the difference between GL3 and GL4 is? Thanks for any input.

Ditch that. I'm running Royal Purple Synchromax as I have done in every BMW m trans I have and the shifting is like butter. Very effortless and smooth.

Redline is great use to run it in my old Evo. I used royal purple as well and wasn't impressed. Totally different car, but I've read good reviews about using Redline in the m3.
