Oil For Reduction Gear

[coolorangecat]

I ordered Red Line 58204 Heavy ShockProof Gear Oil. Will this oil be fine to use in the reduction gear on my 2012 Leaf?

if the oil is Matic S equivalent, then it is fine. I used Redline D6 myself. I am not sure if the 58204 is Nissan Matic S rated.

I canceled and order D6 ATF. The Red Line website recommended D6 ATF for the Nissan Leaf. Thanks!!!

Matic S equivalent oil is fine.

As I understand it, most of the magic underlying the myriad of different ATF specs, has to do with friction modifiers. Since there's absolutely no shifting going on, I doubt if any of it matters for LEAF. That said, I know my doubts don't constitute facts and so I did choose the Redline D6
