Valvoline DEXRON VI/MERCON LV ATF Full Synthetic Automatic Transmission Fluid 1 Gallon

I put this into an older 2010 Chevy Equinox with over 140K miles on the transmission BEFORE there was any hint of a transmission issue...the car was running perfectly at the time, and remains so. The old transmission fluid was nearly black, this stuff is a nice cherry red. I should have done this every 50K-80K miles. I just removed the drain plugs, captured the old fluid, and put back in exactly the same amount. I realize this does not get out all of the old fluid, but I've seen mechanics on Youtube say if your transmission is working perfectly, avoid a "power flush", and just regularly refresh the fluid is safer than potentially getting debris forced into a narrow transmission fluid channel. This is the fluid recommended by GM for this car; I realize there are "multi car" fluids out there, but I went with the one specifically rated for my car. There have been no issues with the transmission before or after the fluid change. If you already HAVE transmission issues, well...I wish you the best, and hope this fixes it, but proactive refreshing of the fluid is proactive maintenance you need to do (unlike me on this car) roughly every 50K miles, despite what the owners manual says...the car manufacturer only "cares" about you during the warranty period....

An actual FULL SYNTHETIC Mercon LV and at a better price than the Ford crap that is expensive Motorcraft Mercon LV (Ford doesn't make fluids or transmissions). I can only speak for Fords and Aisins transmissions directly that require Mercon LV, but I am told that the GM DEXRON VI transmissions fluid is the exact product reading online by the professional transmission builders and gurus. 2009-2020 Fords for the most part use Mercon LV but some use ULV. But in this case, you get a great product cheaper than Ford branded fluid. They didn't design, make or even service most of these transmissions. All the Fusion's and Escapes with CVT"s and I know that the F150's that have the 6R80 claim to have lifetime fluid and they are claimed to be "sealed". That is a crock of crap. They both have drain and fill locations. The Fusion CVT's I have the most experience with, but I installed an aftermarket pan and flushed the entire transmission on the F150 Platinum with a new filter without an issue to date (We used Amsoil in this particular case). Yet, FORD says it cannot be done. That is because when the darn thing fails, they think you are going to run to them to spend 5 grand on a new one. Nope!! It is very easy to change the fluid on any of the Ford, GM or Mopar vehicles. The Fusion models uses an Allen Hex 10mm socket and 5-6 quarts of fluid to pump in with a simple fluid exchange pump from Harbor freight or Amazon. This is for any of the Ford vehicles with CVT's. This applies to many GM vehicles and Mopar too because it is the same transmission just programmed different. This fluid is affordable enough to change it on any mileage that makes you comfortable. I use Amsoil and Mobil1 motor oils and filters, so you can easily change it at the same time you are down there. Perhaps 20-30k mile intervals is plenty. For anyone over that, just order it up and the correct Hex 10mm and knock it out in 30 minutes or so.

Great product and packaging. Highly recommend.

Did 2 drain and fills with this stuff in my 2018 ford flex and there was a Noticeable difference in shifting. I wouldn't hesitate to use it again.

It's trans fluid, should be good for my trans when I pour it in.
