What is Dex 2 transmission fluid?

The General Motors Dexron-II automatic transmission fluid specification, issued in August 1973, defines physical, chemical, and performance requirements of a new class of fluids developed to meet increasingly severe service in passenger car and commercial automatic transmissions.

Can I use Castrol Transmax Multivehicle?

Castrol Transmax Multivehicle is recommended for use in the automatic transmissions of a wide range of Japanese cars, light commercial vehicles and SUVs. It may be used in GM and Ford vehicles requiring Dexron III or Mercon fluids.

What is the viscosity of dexron II?

Viscosity. Kinematic @ 40°C = 42.5 cSt. Kinematic @ 100°C = 8.3 cSt. Viscosity Index 163.

Is DEXRON 2 or 3 better?

The improvements in Dexron-III(F) include better friction stability, more high-temperature oxidation stability, and better material compatibility. Dexron-III(F) has the same low-temperature fluidity as Dexron-II(E), for better transmission performance in cold weather.

Is Castrol good transmission fluid?

Our top pick for the best transmission fluid is the Castrol Transmax Dex/Merc ATF. It works for the majority of domestic cars out there and delivers great results.

Is Castrol Transmax Dex Merc the same as dexron III?

GM no longer licenses Dexron III. Dex/Merc would be fine. Dexron VI is listed by GM as backward compatible, but is thinner than original Dexron III.

What is the replacement for dexron II?

Dexron VI replaced Dexron II and III, and can be used in General Motors domestically built or import transmissions that specified Dexron II or Dexron III. Dexron VI is a low viscosity transmission fluid and should also be used with the full synthetic low viscosity transmission fluid.

What replaces DEXRON II transmission fluid?

Can I use Dex Merc instead of dexron?

Is DEXRON 2 the same as DEXRON 3?

Dexron-III(F) has the same low-temperature fluidity as Dexron-II(E), for better transmission performance in cold weather.
