Transmission fluid to use on high-mileage 940 900

posted by  someone claiming to be David Johnson on  Tue Nov 29 15:57 CST 2011 [RELATED]

My experience is with the AW70 in an '86 244. Original transmission is still shifting well at 331,000 miles and 25 years old. I've used off-brand transmission fluid since the car was new and flush it every 50K miles.

I am more picky with motor oil and have used only Mobil 1 since the first oil change at 1200 miles way back when. But with tranny fluid, if it meets spec, I don't think it makes much difference, especially on a high mileage car.

Save your money for something else, like good tires and brake pads.
