I have a 2005 Kia Sedona and the transmission fluid was changed out by the dealer about 23,000 miles ago. The transmission is supposed to use SP-III transmission fluid, but the dealer used BG Synthetic fluid according to the receipt. What would be the best Lubegard to put in it? I'm going to be driving cross country in about a month and would like to add Lubegard to help "refresh" the current fill. Thanks in advance for your responses.
Lubegard Red or Platinum

While Lubegard is good stuff, you should be fine for many miles to come with the BG synthetic ATF. Was it a pan drop or a complete change of the ATF?
If you want to refresh the ATF, drain or pump a few quarts out and replace with the same stuff.

It was a flush and fill. How miles will the BG synthetic be good for?

Should be more than 23k unless youre using the vehicle really hard.
Lubegard Red is an awesome product. That is your safe bet, it works well. I haven't learned much about the Platinum, it looks good too but the Red is really safe and proven. GO RED

Agreed, out of the two products I think Red is the way to go here. The Platinum I'm sure is fine, but I think it's more for converting ATF's.

Platinum is their one size fits all product.
Red is well known and works great.

Thanks for all the replies gents. Looks like I will be getting some red.
the red is sweet i use it on a buddy's 2001 impala 3800 with 171k original trans and motor
The Red helped with shifting into Reverse on my 1999 Stratus with the 41TE transmission.
