I don't think it's a given that everyone has the new MT fluid on their shelves.

You can give him the part number and have him check. My dealer got changed over around the first of the year and that's all they have.

I am using Amsoil Tranny Fluid that I just changed to about a month ago. Doesn't seem too bad.

I made them double check and put the part number on the work order. Stuff is the balls. Recommend it for every 6 Speed.

Had to bring this up, had mine replaced and installed a TL shift knob....major noticable difference really so much smoother. A recommended hundred dollar upgrade ( fluid flush/replace and shift knob )
