Default What kind of fluid should I use for manual transmission and diff drain and refill?

People say Redline is the way to go but some say to stay away. Does anyone know what Audi dealership uses?

What fluid will make my car happy?

i use redline MT90 in the center diff and mobil1 75w90 in the rear. you need a GL5 rated oil in the front though, which redline is. you can buy official Audi fluids at the dealership but they will be more expensive.
