Need to change the fluid in my 05 with 125K. No issues, fluid has not been changed, color is still good with no off odors. After reading here looks like a pan drop is the safest way to go, along with a filter.
SO which fluid, the universal Dex/Merc (replacement for the old Dex lll) OR the newer Dexron?
thanks

Thats Trans Fluid....

Dexron VI is the best.

not if your a 97-03 car, dex 3 then.

Some are beginning to argue you can't get Dex III and its all secretly something different.Originally Posted by scottydoggs
Might as well step up to a synthetic blend, aka Dex VI.

I was under the impression VI was usable in all versions of Dexron and was the newest advancement In trans fluId..?

you are correct

Dex III is supposed to cling to the differential a little better and provide more protection for it apparently.
asposed-to.

ive also heard dex 5 is thinner then dex 3. but in a car that calls for dex 5 thats what its supposed to use.
dex 3 is still very available. very.
i would just use what your year car calls for.

dealer says dex 6

its much thinner when cold (good) and slightly thinner when hot (good and bad).
For a daily, dex VI all the way.

I changed mine out at 160k not knowing if it had been changed before and I put dex VI in it and haven't had any issues

i cant help with the install but i can tell you this, you'll love it.
my used trans came with one, and this is the way it should shift.
