The oil used in this transmission was specifically developed for it. If you use a oil that is not approved you will void your warranty. my warrenty is void anyway. and if u did have to get warranty work done its easy enough to flush the trans and refill it with the correct oil anyway. :lol: Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/8865-auto-transmission-fluid/page/2/#findComment-89221 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also are there other choices available?Geea. The fluid developed for this transmission has a lower coefficent of friction and has more extreme pressure additives comparied to a product that meets the Dextron III specification. I don't believe there are any synthetic product aproved for use in this transmission so your best option is to use a approved product such as Castrol TQ 95 and change your oil atleast every 40 000km.
