ATF Shelf Life?

Would unopened 3 year old bottles of Mobil brand Dexron/Mercon automatic transmission fluid be OK to use for my next change?



They would not have deteriorated if they were closed and not subjected to extremes of temperature, etc.

they should be fine.. just make sure it's the right Dexron/Mercon for whatever car you're going to use it on.

Eric....isn't all Dexron/Mercon the same???? Anyway, I'm sure these Mobil bottles are the right type. They are the ones I had left over when I did my last Aerostar transmission filter change 23,000 miles ago.

Dexron/Mercon is different, but similar enough to be the same.
