Let's get cheaper CVT fluid to save $50 and if it blows up in a $6,000 transmission then ok I'll take the gamble. Ohh and this magical power of this act that everyone in the interwebs quotes will save me...... Might I urgently suggest this.... Look up this supposed "Saviour" act. Read it for yourself. Slowly and deliberately. See if there are loop holes that could leave YOU high and dry.
Except it's a $12,000 car brand new... I doubt the tranny is half the cost of the car. I have used amsoil without a problem I'm just looking for something cheaper. All my car maintenance has gotten cheaper since my son was born. Went from Amsoil and PUP to QSUD and Magnatec. Just because I'm going cheaper doesn't mean I'm causing damage.
