AMSOIL Synthetic ATF is recommended for the latest manufacturer
specifications.
Automatic transmission technology has been quickly evolving over the past few years. Six-speed transmissions are becoming more common, and automakers are demanding higher quality, longer lasting transmission fluids to protect these transmissions.
General Motors, for example, recently introduced its DEXRON® VI specification. Established to provide extra protection for 2006 vehicles equipped with six-speed Hydra-Matic transmissions, DEXRON VI fluids are also recommended for transmissions built before the 2006 model year. DEXRON VI represents a significant upgrade over previous specifications. In order to minimize fluid degradation and ensure improved performance in extreme conditions, DEXRON VI fluids require greater oxidative and shear stability, foam performance and protection against pitting. According to GM, DEXRON VI fluids provide more than twice the durability and stability in friction tests than fluids meeting previous specifications.
Ford Motor Company, on the other hand, recently announced the retirement of its MERCON ® automatic transmission fluid specification, opting to promote its more stringent MERCON® V specification that requires improved anti-oxidation, antiwear and antishudder properties. Ford also introduced its MERCON® SP specification in 2004.Designed for high torque six-speed transmissions, MERCON SP fluids have lower viscosity requirements and more stringent cold-temperature Brookfield viscosity requirements.
AMSOIL Synthetic Automatic Transmission Fluid (ATF) exceeds the performance requirements for domestic and foreign automatic transmission fluid applications, and is now recommended for cars and trucks callingfor DEXRON VI,
MERCON V & SP, NAG 1 & 2 and Nissan Matic J & K transmission fluids. AMSOIL ATF provides automatic transmissions, power steering units and hydraulic equipment with excellent lubricating protection and better performance over a wider temperature range than conventional automatic transmission fluids.
• Resists thermal and oxidative degradation• Ensures cool transmission operation
• Provides outstanding low temperature protection
• Improves fuel economy• Provides smooth shifting• Maximizes transmission performance and service life• Reduces maintenance costs• Offers extended drain intervals
AMSOIL Synthetic Automatic Transmission Fluid is recommended for use up to 60,000 miles in severe serviceand up to 100,000 miles in normal service, or according to the vehicle manufacturer recommended intervals, whichever is longer. Drain intervals may be extended further with oil analysis.
AMSOIL Synthetic ATF is recommended for transmission, hydraulic and other applications requiring any of the following specifications:• GM DEXRON II, III & VI• Ford MERCON, MERCON V & SP• Chrysler ATF+ through ATF+4®• Honda Z-1 (Not for use in CVT transmissions)• Toyota Type T and T-IV• Mitsubishi/Hyundai Diamond SP II & III• Allison C-3, C-4, Caterpillar TO-2• Voith G607, G1363• ZF TE-ML 14A, B & C• MB 236.1, 236.2, 236.6, 236.7, 236.9• BMW 7045E, JWS 3309, NAG 1 & 2• LT 71141 (ESSO), Nissan Matic D, J & K• Vickers I-286S & M-2950S
Excellent for power steering units that use ATF.Not for use in CVT transmissions.
