Description: PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
AMSOIL Synthetic Automatic Transmission Fluid (ATF) exceeds the performance requirements for domestic and foreign automatic transmission fluid applications. AMSOIL ATF provides automatic transmissions, power steering units and hydraulic equipment with excellent lubricating protection and better performance over a wider temperature range than conventional automatic transmission fluids.

Resists Oxidation and Thermal Degradation
AMSOIL ATF resists thermal and oxidative degradation better than conventional transmission fluids, protecting clutches, planetary gears, valves, pumps and seals from damaging sludge and varnish deposits. AMSOIL ATF helps prevent component overheating and ensures cooler, smoother transmission operation.

Provides Low Temperature Protection
AMSOIL ATF outperforms petroleum fluids in low temperature fluidity. In fact, AMSOIL ATF offers twice the cold temperature fluidity required by current automatic transmission fluid specifications. AMSOIL ATF provides easier starting, faster warm-ups, smoother shifting and improved fuel economy.

Antiwear Protection
AMSOIL ATF provides smooth shifting and long, trouble-free transmission life. In addition, the antiwear additive package makes AMSOIL ATF an excellent lubricant in other hydraulic systems. In tests designed to measure wear characteristics under severe service and high pressure operating conditions, AMSOIL ATF far exceeds the requirements of hydraulic equipment manufacturers.

Extends Drain Intervals
AMSOIL ATF is a stable formulation that lasts longer in service than conventional ATFs. It maintains its viscosity, friction and lubricating properties for extended periods of time, even under severe conditions. AMSOIL ATF maximizes transmission performance and service life while reducing maintenance costs through longer drain intervals.

Pros: Quiet tranny, smooth shifting, mileage increase
Cons: Expensive

This is my second go round with Amsoil ATF. I got a complete flush and fill with my '00 Sport and then proceeded to trade it in soon after on my '99 Eddie Bauer. The new owner of my last ride got off very lucky! I recently did the deed for the Eddie as well.

It may be psychological, but my shifting definitely feels smoother and quieter since got Amsoil in the tranny. I know it's far from scientific, but my onboard message center confirms a mileage increase, albeit small. Every bit counts, right?

The press on this stuff claims your tranny will last forever if you use it. It's more expensive than standard ATF, but it should pay for itself in due course.

I'm also using it in my transfer case.

Pros: long interval, increased gas mileage
Cons: cost

I did 40k pan service on my '97 until 100k miles when I did a complete fluch and fill with Amsoil ATF. It feels smooth, my gas mileage is better, and I wish I had done it sooner. So far very happy, after 30k miles with it. Also use in my transfer case, which has been replaced, apparently 'cause I abused it and never changed the fluid for 120k miles. Also replaced power sterring fluid with this, and the noise that was starting is now gone.
