I've got 115K miles on my engine/tranny and I've used synthetic oil in both since the engine hit 3k miles back in 95.My gears have never made noise(grinding noises)or had trouble shifting.I hammer the ---- out my tranny all the time and to this day I have never had anny trouble using synthetic in it.A dealer tech back in 95 told me to use straight 30 weight in the tranny.I dont know if you had problems couse you used 10-30.Maybe that could be a problem.
