Gearbox-oil for 320d 2009 (manual)

Im beginning to think my gearbox feels a bit harder to get into gear sometimes, mostly third gear. Im going to change oil and want some input on different oils.
I´ve read that many of you go with Redline ATF-oil, will it fit my gearbox too?
is it possible that the gearbox linkage to the shifter is poorly greased?
The car has exactly 100.000 miles on it.
Its a 2009 320d 177hp 6speed maual.

Thanks for answers,
Robert , Sweden

Can't comment on putting AT fluid in an MT, but the correct viscosity for the manual gearbox is 75W-80. To improve change quality you might also like to consider fitting Rogue Engineering uprated gearbox mounts. They make a significant improvement.

And yes, they do fit the E9X range.
