    There would be a problem with using this product in a transaxle like a Ferrari...it is possible that this slippery additive may be too slippery for the synchros in the transmission. The transaxle requires a delicate balance of slip additive...enough for the limited slip differential, but not too much for the synchros.

    I don't know of a single automotive application where PTFE inside a case filled with oil is beneficial. This includes engines, turbos, transmissions, differentials, and hubs.

    The producer guarantees that adding until 5% of product to the PTFE the synchros not forgiveness efficiency.

    I suppose that also the fiir it must not have problems to limited-slip differential.

    You can say to me the just additive and the percentage dilution that must have?

    Thanks.

    Ciao.
