Default Re: Trans and diff fluid question.

So I am considering using the Pennzoil synthetic 75w90 gl-5 full synthetic in the diff. And Mannol 75w80 mtf-4 in the trans as it meets MB 235.10 specs. Both which are quite inexpensive yet the quality is very high.
Let me add to the confusion! LOL
For the differential I used Redline 75W85. When I did the 6 speed transmission I used Mercedes-Benz Gear Oil MB 235.10.
