MT82 fluid in hot weather

[Mustang gt 2016]

Hi, i just want to change my transmission fluid and i live in middle east where the temperature in summer reaches 49-50 C
And in winter not less than 20C. I have a stock transmission any suggestion which fluid gives you the smoothest shifts in hot weather ? BG / amsoil / ben calimer cocktail / oem ???

OEM DCT fluid is fairly thin to balance cold and warm climate performance. I believe BG is a decent bit thicker. Not sure about the others. You can definitely run and benefit from a thicker fluid in a climate like that. Most oils are viscosity rated in cST (at least in the US) at 40C and 100C. I think OEM is sub 10 at 100C.

You would not be disappointed with the BG Synchroshift in these temperatures.
