    Need help: MAZDA ATF M-III or Motorcraft Mercon-V

    I've been using SuperTech Dexron VI in my 1999 Millenia's LJ4A-EL (which also calls for M-III) for over two years now, so probably close to 25,000 miles ago. I've also flushed my power steering fluid with Dexron VI around the same time. No issues whatsoever.

I did several pan drains (amounting to better than 98% replacement) with SuperTech Dexron III followed by a pan drop and filter change. Shifting improved, but I still had issues with harsh...

    Mobil 1 HM 10w30 - 5,200 miles - Mazda Millenia S

    I have a 1999 Mazda Millenia S with the Lysholm supercharged 2.25L KL-ZEM Miller Cycle V6. I'm a little concerned with the high chrome reading. I'm not sure what to make of the sodium. My coolant level has been rock solid for over a year. Before the M1 High-Mileage, I used SuperTech 10w30 in it...

    Is it ok to mix ATF with different brand?
