This poll had been posted in a less robust manner previously. Those answers are gone, so please vote again. Poll open for 90 days.
If you do not meet criteria below, but are interested in results, you can see results without voting.
Please answer the poll stating your preferred fluid for your ATF-WS-spec'c automatic transmission IF:
* You own a WS-spec'd automatic transmission (for sake of discussion, let's exclude hybrid CVTs please, only autos)
* You have done an ATF change on said transmission (dog in the fight only please)
* (Select up to 3 fluids that you have used successfully and would use again. If you've used a fluid previously, but will not use it going forward, don't select it.)
I've ready many of the interesting BITOG/Toyota threads on WS fluid. I've seen arguments for and against WS. I wanted to construct a poll so members could interpret the often impassioned discussion with some survey data. Mainly, I want to see these results to guide my own maintenance decisions going forward (recently acquired '15 Sienna). Forum discussion can highlight the stated preferences of an outspoken minority and make it seem like a majority. I want to see the revealed preferences of a larger population. Some may not speak up in the comment section, but will answer a poll question. This poll won't be perfect as we can't really enforce the proposed criteria above, but hopefully the honor system will prevail and this information will provide some relevant context to supplement the discussion.
I've selected these choices after asking in a previous thread and browsing the "post your latest" thread. These are the most popular answers where the fluid manufacturer lists WS as an application.
