Hi folks!
I just did a CVT fluid change on our 2015 Outback.
I used a MV CTVF spec fluid.....and now im reading the 2015 spec is CTVF-2 in some cases.
Have mercy!
All I know is the new stuff is red.....and the old stuff is dark green/brown
After two drain and fills and a drive, the car shifts beautifully....smooth and seems to have lost the harsh shift into gear lurch it had
Should I shell out for OEM CVTF-2 fluid? Subaru only sells it in 5 gallon pails here.....and every parts store in town only carrys CTVF compatiible fluids.
Did they change the cvt that much from.'14 to '15?
Thanks!
Ryan
