Anybody using Synthetic tranny fluid in thier automatics? What would the benefits be? Smoother gear shifts?

 

Tyler isn't almost all trans fluid synthetic.

I recently was looking at, I think Havoline or Valvoline, in Wally World. It was marked synthetic. Nothing special, Just the GM Delco replacement.

 

Didn't know that. Thanks for your help.

 

Most is now. Our Mazda comes from the factory with synthetic. I've heard good things about royal purple!

 

Remember to double check though.

I do remember, thinking at the time, "What's the difference between this (whatever I was holding) and all these wonderful exotic boutique fluids that people talk about....other than an additive package".

 

"Anybody using Synthetic tranny fluid in thier automatics?"

I thought I read they come with syn trans fluid in automatics.....

 

I thought the trannys were sealed units.

 

Just No trans fluid Dip Stick.

Cheap Bastages they are!

 

Mentioning the "no trans. dip stick".......

A friend of mine was looking at a new BMW, he said he couldn't find the OIL dip stick. He thought maybe BMW did not include oil dip sticks on their vehicles.

Without looking it up , can anyone say if this is true.

 

Valvoline Dexron VI is synthetic. I just replaced fluid and filter in the wifes G6 and I will be doing my HHR next weekend. The last time I checked Royal Purple was not rated for anything that uses Dexron VI.
