Like I said, I have been running the RedLine ATF-D4 in my manual 135, N54 trans...
The coldest it has gotten around here in Germany(where I live) was about minus 12' C. The trans shifted fine. I will say you could tell the trans oil was thick(slightly higher effort for the first few gear changes). But it shifted fine.
Btw... the hottest it gets here is about 34'C in the summer time. But normally we are in the 27's' C range. Again the trans shifts fine in those temps.
I think changing one's trans fluid every ~30K miles is normal. I do not believe in "Life Time" fluids.
