[QUOTE="UnleashedBeast, post: 13332501, member: 112023"] Amsoil did recommend MTG 75W-90 transmission lube when the 2011 GT first released. However, Ford was having a lot of problems with the MT82. After the first TSB to change out OEM fluid for much lighter DCT formulation, Amsoil removed their recommendation of any lubricant in this transmission, as they wanted nothing to do with an inferior design that could have fingers pointed at them. Conoco Philips Purolator manufacturers most Motorcraft oil filters. Another company by the name of "Racor" is said to make a few filters for Ford diesel trucks and other applications. Not a definite answer, but I'd bet on Purolator. Would not have been possible without members on this forum. Thanks goes to all who participate. RD30 is a superior formulation to Signature Series when it comes to anti-wear additives and friction modifiers, but lacks in the detergent/dispersant department. If you do not mind changing your oil more frequently, RD30 is the better choice. Recommended oil change interval, not to exceed 6 months or 5,000 miles. Signature Series is good up to 1 year or 15,000 miles. RD30 is perfect for those who have oil change OCD, and a wallet that doesn't care. Also for those who mod their car to create almost double (or more) HP than the car was designed with. RD30 can take abuse that most lubricants would fail at. I'm not trying to short sell Signature Series here, as it also serves a purpose. ATM 10W-30 SS held up just fine in my near 700 RWHP GT500. Wear metal ppm were on par with RD30. [/QUOTE]
