i was asking about manual trans oil. i'm not positive but i don't believe the vx has a trans oil pressure light.

also, i personally wouldn't take a chance running such light engine oil that the oil light may come on at idle. insufficient engine lubrication can create costly engine repairs that would offset any minimal gains in fuel economy. once i finish my input shaft bearing and get this vx on the road, i will stick with stock 5w-30 engine oil but i will be running 5w-30 synthetic engine oil in the trans.
