I don't think putting automatic transmission fluid in a 5 speed manual transmission is a good plan. Manuals usually take heavy weight oil as their fluid. Check with a reliable trans shop before you add anything.

Your local auto parts store will tell you what kind of fluid to put in there. Automatic transmission fluid goes in an automatic transmission, gear oil goes in a manual transmission. Hope that helps! Jim
