    cold weather ATF for old Chrysler tranny

    Sober up here.. were talking about -40c and i seriously doubt anyone just gets in the car and drive away imideately at these temps.. Im pretty sure that the tranny will get a minute or two atleast to warm up and at that Point ordinary atf+4 without any "snakeoil" is perfectly ok.

    Sensing alkalinity from acidity

    294k KM on 2006 TDI (BEW)... some lifter damage

    I think its quite safe to say that hdeo of the ci+4, cj type are more robust than the passcar oils even if they carry a vw501 sign. Many poeple have had great succses with these oils in hard cammed v8´s, vw pumpdyse engines etc. And since they are way cheaper its a no brainer to me.. i would use...

    Why ATF in transfer case

    Chrysler says atf +3 can run twice as long as dex3 in a 242.( -98 Durango owners manual. ) atf+4 is a very good fluid that probably would meet a gl-4 designation. use atf+4.
