- Excellent low-temperature properties
- Protects against wear
- Minimizes sludge and varnish deposits
- Protects against rust and corrosion
- Good seal compatibility
- Suitable for both automotive and industrial applications
Applications
- GM and Ford automatic transmissions in 2005 and earlier model-year vehicles that are no longer under warranty, where the OEM previously specified DEXRON®-III H, DEXRON-II, DEXRON or MERCON® ATF
- Import vehicles where DEXRON-III H (obsolete) or an earlier-generation DEXRON fluid (obsolete) is specified
- Allison heavy-duty off-highway automatic transmissions that require a C-4 quality fluid
- Hydraulic systems on industrial and mobile equipment operating over a wide temperature range Note: Classic ATF is not recommended for use in newer automatic transmissions that require a GM DEXRON-VI, Ford MERCON LV, Ford MERCON SP or Ford MERCON V fluid for warranty coverage, or in continuously variable transmissions (CVTs).
