Recommended Transmission fluid


Recommended Posts

Mobil 1 HP Blue Label is the only fluid recommended for the finicky 8 speed. Even with this fluid they are prone to torque converter shudder and harsh/delayed shifting. Gotta be the worst transmission GM ever dumped on us poor folks...

AMSOIL's ATL transmission fluid would work great in the 8sp. 

 

Use AMSOIL Signature Series Fuel-Efficient Synthetic ATF in
transmissions and other applications that require any of the following specifications:
Aisin-Warner AW-1; BMW 83 22 0 142 516, 83 22 2 152 426; Chrysler MOPAR*
68157995AA, SP-IV, 68218925AB; DSIH 6p805; Ford MERCON* LV, SP, ULV; GM DEXRON*
HP, DEXRON* VI, ULV; Honda/Acura DW-1*, Type 3.0; Hyundai/Kia SP-IV, SPH-IV, SP-IV-
RR, NWS-9638, SP4-M; JASO 1A-LV; JWS 3324; Mazda ATF FZ; Mercedes Benz 236.12,
236.14, 236.15, 236.41; Mitsubishi SP-IV, ATF J3, ATF-PA, ATF-MA1; Nissan Matic-S, Matic-

backward compatible and replaces DEXRON III fluids in older GM
automatic transmissions. (DEXRON VI specification supersedes the
obsolete DEXRON III in GM vehicles.) Also suitable for Toyota CVT
applications calling for the Toyota “WS” specification
