Dexron VI and ATF+4 are both automatic transmission fluids, but they are formulated for different transmission types and specifications. While some vehicles may tolerate the use of Dexron VI in place of ATF+4, it is not generally recommended due to potential differences in performance and compatibility. Always refer to your vehicle's owner manual or consult a professional before making such substitutions to ensure optimal transmission function and avoid possible damage.
Use MERCON/Dextron III
Yes... Dexron 6 is the latest trans fluid and can be used in any application that calls for Dexron III
Yes dextron 6 can be used in applications otherwise requiring dextron 3
Yup, Dexron 6 Should be compatible with your Saturn :)
Dextron
If the vehicle was designed to to use Dextron 3 then yes. Dextron 6 has replaced Dextron 3 for my 2001 Jimmy. The tranny dip stick says use Dex 3 but my two 2008 printed reference sources say use Dex 6. Dex 6 has replaced Dex 3 like 3 has replaced others before it. I think in this case either would be OK keeping in mind 6 is synthetic and more expensive. Lube Shop Owner.
i just put 6 ltrs of dextron 6 in my 2000 Malibu
Use Dextron III ATF, but be sure not to overfill the tranny.
Yes, according to multiple TSBs (technical service bulletin) from GM: DEXRON-VI can be used in any proportion in past model vehicles equipped with an automatic transmission/transaxel in place of DEXRON-III (i.e. topping off the fluid int the event of a repair or fluid change.) DEXRON-VI is also compatible with any former version of DEXRON for use in automatic tranmissions/transaxels.
dextron or mercon III, you have to pump it in from the bottom.
There is no difference.
ATF+6 and ATF+4 are not the same, though they are both types of automatic transmission fluid. ATF+6 is a newer formulation that offers improved performance, such as better lubrication and thermal stability, compared to ATF+4. While ATF+4 can often be used in certain applications requiring ATF+6, it's generally recommended to use ATF+6 where specified for optimal performance and protection. Always consult your vehicle's manufacturer guidelines to ensure compatibility.
