Product Description: AMSOIL Synthetic Universal
Automatic Transmission Fluid (ATF)
Subject: AMSOIL Synthetic Universal Automatic
Transmission Fluid Applications Guide
OBJECTIVE:
Define the transmission
fluid specifications for which
AMSOIL Synthetic
Universal Automatic Transmission Fluid (ATF) is
recommended.
ISSUES:
Many automotive
manufacturers require specific fluids for their
automatic transmissions, and the wide variety of
specifications on the market creates concern with
consumers and AMSOIL Dealers when selecting or
recommending a product. Based on research and
testing results, AMSOIL ATF can be confidently
recommended in the applications listed in this
guide.
TECHNICAL DISCUSSION:
Automatic transmissions
have become increasingly complicated, with many
requiring transmission fluids with specific
frictional and viscosity characteristics. AMSOIL ATF
is formulated to meet and exceed many of the
specifications on the market, including OEM
manufacturer specifications,
manufacturer-recommended oils and manufacturer part
numbers.
RECOMMENDATION:
AMSOIL ATF is a full
synthetic transmission fluid designed to meet many
domestic and foreign automatic transmission
requirements for automotive, heavy-duty on- and
off-road and power steering applications. The
following list contains all of the recommended
specifications for which AMSOIL ATF is recommended:
