what gearbox oil? for ss s/c

ok so I did a search on here to find out what gearbox oil I needed for my ss/sc 06 and all I saw was this "75W90 Gear Oil"... but some people was saying that's not the correct oil for my car.... something about drexon??? not sure, some redish amberish color came out when I was changing the clutch, so my car is down right now and since I have no dealers here on my island in the Caribbean, I can't find out from them... anyone know what oil I need to use??

Stock GM Fluid or some of the SS/TC Fluid (which is better, but hard to come buy).

Stock fluid is where its at, nothing else will work better.

I can't think of the part number off hand. I'd get it straight from the Dealer.

I've ran Royal Purple & AMSOIL in my trans... they just don't cut it. I get the **** from the dealer now.

slap whoever told you Dexron

75W90 gear oil is correct, use factory stuff or Redline (without friction modifiers)

The part number for the SS/TC oil is 88862472 try Saturn dealerships, as a lot of Saab's use it and they are more likely to stock it, I just got some from a dealership, changing the fluid tonight.
