Try the 2 cheapest ones and get the one I like best I like learning a bit about oil so next time I head towards this I already know. for instance I will also be using Mobil 1 Synthetic ATF™ in my 4l80e, as Allison te-295 allows for very little shear (7.5cst can shear at most to 7cst)

A higher viscosity index means that tempature affects the fluids viscosity less. for example oil A might be 36.04Cst @ 40° C & 6.8Cst @ 100° C 154 vi index -42°C pour 208°C flash Oil B 36.3Cst @ 40° C & 7.4Cst @ 100° C 176 vi index -51°C pour 220°C flash these numbers are used to calculate the...

That's what I decided to go with.

UPDATE: I've decided just to get a synthetic ATF With a high viscosity index rated for Allison C4 or Dex 3H was hoping for TotalEnergies FLUIDMATIC XLD FE as it has slightly lower viscosity but ended up ordering Mobile Synthetic ATF™ as it's certified by Allison for TES-295 the fluid I had...

I've thought about it, wasn't sure about the friction reducing stuff and it's effect on the synchro clutch it's definitely more viscous so that would be good from a protection standpoint mine had pump rub and 100ml of fluid was drained, a lot of stuff look and sounded okay but the collar and...

Turbo, was built NA for 480hp and torque. 10.6:1 comp, S475/83, on 4ish psi should be 580-610hp at the crank. honestly not much atm but need more fuel system to reach my 900 crank goal it's a NP263 HD with the XHD chain so it WI handle a lot of power.

this is the synchronizer blocking ring that sits in the center of the synchro assembly. The T case I rebuilt had the older style that was probably organic paper fiber, likely incompatible with synthetic fluids and DEX 6 additives. had no clutches left on the inside and maybe 1/16th coverage on...

Changed fluid in my NP263 transfer caseast might. I bought a used unit and rebuilt it after having the pump rub ruin my original, within the last 5000km. figured I give it a check up I had been using Total MV which specs dex IIIH. only had dex IV on hand so I ordered more dex 3 didnt notice...

Your right, didn't realize I had written that.

the one container I opened had mobil written on the seal just like any mobil 1 or mobil product. haven't seen it since but must be coming from the same place for that to happen

Went to open a jug of their 10w30 conventional for some mowers and right on the top it had the same exact shiny metal seal with mobil written on it (only one I ever saw with that seal). Exact same seal you'd find on every mobil / mobil 1 product. Same parent company.

It's definitely good at reducing shudder It's a mobil product at the end of the day so probably pretty good

Hey guys, So I have a 2005 Sierra with a 4L80E. Its had a leak that I recently fixed and I have a question about the transmission fluid I used. It's Called Multi vehicle low viscosity (mv lv) by Total Energies. I've used it on my Honda accord but it says to meet the requirements of Honda...
