Choosing What Transmission Fluid to Use in Your Car

Our technicians recommend that the transmission fluid in your car or truck be changed every 2 to 3 years of ownership, or every 24,000 to 36,000 miles. The transmission filter should also be changed at the time intervals. It is important to know that choosing the wrong transmission fluid can result in transmission problems or damage.

  1. Review your vehicle owner manual to determine the transmission fluid type for your car or truck. There are two types of transmission fluid, Dextron or Mercon.
  2. Decide if you wish to use either synthetic or conventional transmission fluid. In modern day cars and trucks synthetic fluid will provide better performance and is more durable than conventional fluid at higher temperatures. When driving an older model vehicle it is better to use conventional fluid if synthetic has never been used before.
  3. Transmission fluid brands include Mobil, Penzoil, Shell, and others. For the best prices on transmission fluid and customer reviews we encourage you to >click here to buy customer reviewed transmission fluid at Amazon.com.
