I wanna say Burla on here looked into the oils & the Mopar ATF+4 was considered a very good oil. I also wanna say that the Wal Mart Brand was not very far behind. I went ahead with the Mopar cause it is not something that will get done on mine more than a couple of times before I trade it. Getting your temps 25-30* cooler is going to do a lot for the longevity of the fluid & the tranny itself! I wish they would stop that crap of putting in transmission heaters! Been looking in to trading our Durango in for a new one & that is one thing they show as a standard feature. Doing that probably doesn't even save you $20 over the life of the vehicle. A toasted transmission is going to be worse for the environment than the few drops of fuel!!!
Just wait till you get a German ZF 8 speed without consumer oil change features.
