Features & Benefits

  • Meets performance requirements for nearly all vehicles with belt-type continuously variable transmissions
  • High steel-on-steel friction to prevent belt slippage, which can result in high or even catastrophic wear
  • Low steel-on-paper friction to prevent torque converter clutch slippage, which can result in shudder
  • Excellent oxidation resistance and thermal stability for long fluid life
  • Protects against sludge and varnish formation
  • Protects against wear
  • Protects against rust and corrosion
  • Excellent low-temperature properties for easier shifting in cold weather
  • Good seal compatibility
  • Good foam resistance

Applications

  • Passenger cars with belt-driven continuously variable transmissions (CVTs)

Technical Details

  • Specific Gravity @ 60°F: 0.864
  • Licenses & Approvals

    CVT Fluid is recommended for most Honda, Jeep, Mitsubishi, Nissan (except Altima hybrid) and Suzuki vehicles with CVT transmissions. It is not recommended for eCVT or most chain-driven CVT transmissions, or in any non-CVT transmission. Please refer to the owner’s manual for correct transmission fluid recommendation.
