It was the OEM greenish fluid.

Yep, they recommend the SS fuel efficient ATF. I've done two drain and fills after replacing the pan with a PPE aluminum pan. 12K miles so far on it, running silky smooth.

Changed this last fall, my 2018 Ram had 160K miles. First fluid change (yeah, I know, me dumb 😀 ) Just for context I had a relatively gentle 160K miles, no towing, very little city driving. (I'm at 172K now, I replaced with Amsoil SS fuel efficient ATF) Here's an image of the blackstone report...

2007 Hyundai Sonata 2.5L. Maxlife ATF 2018 Ram 1500 zf transmission. 160K miles, never changed. Did a drain and fill replacing with PPE pan and AMSOIL Signature Series Fuel-Efficient 100% Synthetic Automatic Transmission Fluid (ATL). Running smooth as ever. I plan to do another drain and...

2018 Ram 1500. Valvoline full synthetic 75w140 for the rear Amsoil Severe Gear 75w-90 in the front

On my 2004 Ram 1500 5.7 I did 10K full synthetic. I gave away the vehicle at 275K miles in 2018 due to excess body rust. Got tired of patching it up before every inspection. It's still zipping around town by young man, family friend. My 2018 Ram 1500 3.6 I've been a little more careful doing...

Sheesh! I wouldn't buy a car with an engine that's that hard on oil. That would have mean having 80 oil changes on my 2018 Ram 1500 by now. :ROFLMAO:

Thanks Pablo. I just changed out to Amsoil on my front Diff and transfer case. .. Just got the tranny job left before winter hits.

Thanks. I wonder which one is closer to matching zf viscosity.

2007 Sonata GL. Flushed out old fluid. Replaced with Lubegard synthetic.

2007 Sonata GL. Drained and fill with Valvolne Maxlife.

I plan to use it on my 2018 Ram 1500 8speed zf tranny. According to the amsoil site both qualify for my transmission.

Multi-Vehicle.

I've decided to go for broke and change over to Amsoil SS ATF. What's up with this blue bottle one. Fuel Efficient. Any supposed trade offs to using this vs the red cap. I get suspicious when I read fuel efficient. Makes me suspect there might be a trade off. Both seem to be spec'd for the...

I did 10K oil changes for almost 20 years. Did it on my 2004 Ram 1500 5.7. I gave it away in 2018 with 275k miles to young man in neighborhood that need a car. It's still zipping around town. I did the same with wife's 2000 Caravan for 160K miles. By that time we were tired of patching up the...
