Default What gear lube

Whats the best gear lube for my crx si tranny. Its starting to catch everytime i put it in 3rd gear when the a/c is on. Im going to tighten up the clutch cable alittle and change the gear lube. I have a little bit of a squeak when i shift by the shifter bushing, think maybe the bushing is drying out and would cause it. Thanks

just to show you i appreciate the help

if you want something that gets rid of a 3rd gear grind then BG synchro shift 2 is the way to go. my B16 tranny no longer grinds 3rd after replacing it with that stuff

I put Honda manual fluid in mine and it still grinds sometimes. I know my tranny had a bullitin to have all syncros that grind replaced, but the dealer wouldn't do crap when it was still under warranty. Maybe try some after market crap like that bg stuff like CoreyR said, but i have never been impressed with bg crap. To me its just snake oil! I loved flushing automatics with bg fluid cause it was going to come back a couple months later with tranny issues, but now i am compairing apples and oranges. I heard some guys put GM's syncromesh in hondas, and i used that alot on gm trannys when i was a gm tranny tech. That stuff is really good! It worked miracles on gm trannys and quieted them down alot, smoothed out shifts, and stopped grinds.
