Ah! Thanks, diesel_john. I thought I was going nuts. I remembered (wrongly) it being in the first post of the thread. Thanks.

I wouldn't recommend anyone do anything outside of their owner's manual. But if it were my car, I'd be trying something lighter than 90w. (And I'd have a replacement transmission on a shelf in the garage :-P)
