got a bottle in my garage waiting to be used 
I had this same problem and while it didn't completely correct it, it made it a lot better. If you have a Corolla with a manual (which you do) this is one of the best fluids you can put in there. Ask anybody who has used it (94_rolla_guy for one) and they'll say it's amazing.I have some syncro problems on my transmission and my first gear is very hard to get in when it's cold outside. Does anyone had this problem and notticed a good difference with this kind of oil ? I changed my oil before the winter but it's kind of a cheap but I would not like to kill my tranny for 30$.
