The trick to overfilling is to jack up the car on the driver's side, using blocks/stands (front and rear) to hold it up while you fill the transmission. I got just a soupcon under 2 liters in there using this method. I did this because I read somewhere that the M47 has its upper fill plug placed too low, and that overfilling will help the M47 to last longer. I have no idea what the exact amount should be, I just jacked it up and filled it. Made it easier to fill as well.

There are lots of different kinds of fluids out there that will work just fine, and I haven't tried anything but MTL. What I like about MTL: 1) shifts smoothly when cold, 2) shifts smoothly when warm. Other than that, Redline claims to have_added_friction ingredients to MTL, because the synchro's need friction to work smoothly (see previous sentence).

As to whether they ship, you could always ask--> http://www.redlineoil.com/index.htm
