I recommend what the owner's manual says :-).

Transmission: [I'll check after I get home]
Diff: 80W-90 Gear Oil

Tell your brother that if he needs some parts, I have a 1990 that I
will sell anything off from it.

There are six things the Lord hates,
seven that are detestable to him :
haughty eyes,
a lying tongue,
hands that shed innocent blood,
a heart that devises wicked schemes,
feet that are quick to rush into evil,
a false witness who pours out lies
and a man who stirs up dissension among brothers.

Proverbs 6:16-19

For the transmission the owner's manual says:

Mitsubishi 5-speed: Standard Transmission Lubricant SAE 80W
Mazda-R1 (5-speed): Motorcraft MERCON Automatic Transmission Fluid
A4LD (Automatic): Motorcraft MERCON Automatic Transmission Fluid

Q: What is the difference between open-source and commercial software?
A: If you have a problem with commercial software you can call a phone
number and they will tell you it might be solved in a future version.
For open-source sofware there isn't a phone number to call, but you
get the solution within a day.

What do _I_ recommend?? First, learn to spell. Then speak English. THEN
remove the 3" lift so the vehicle looks white again.
