transmission fluid

transmission fluid is a fancy name for 10W hydraulic fluid with pink dye, same for power-steering fluid. A autoshift transmission is basically a hydraulic pump and hydraulic motor combined w/a gear case, some "tranny fluids" are better than others but only because of the addition of special additives. You can waste your money on Redline or B&M fluids but for the most part just get the off the fluid that was factory recommended such as Dexron II, III or IV with or w/o Mercon (whatever the hell that is).

Quaker State, which is now owned by Pennzoil.

Both refined and bottled at the same place, in Pa. Same additives and a fine product!

Mobil 1. Synthetic oils handle heat better than traditional oils & auto trannys live to generate heat. 227,000 miles on a '95 Z71 4L60E tells me to keep using it.

In my opinion, the best ATF available is AMSOIL synthetic ATF. Yes, there can be substantial differences in the performance of various brands of ATF, just as there are substantial differences in the performance of various brands of cars. :-)

All the Best, Steve
