Automatic Transmission Fluid (ATF DW-1®)

What is it?

Automatic transmission fluid provides hydraulic power to perform transmission functions, such as shifting gears. It also lubricates and cools internal components.

What if I ignore it?

• Transmission fluid degrades and breaks down (wears out) with use, and poor fluid quality or condition can lead to shudder or harsh shifting.

What if I take care of it?

• Help maximize longevity of transmission
• Help maintain optimal transmission performance and driving quality
• Help prevent possible costly transmission repairs
