ValvolineImport Multi-Vehicle (ATF) Full Synthetic Automatic Transmission Fluid 1 QT, Case of 6

It works well on a 2004 Prius.Shifting smoothly, No need to spend too much money on the Original oil.

Much cheaper than Toyota Type IV and works just as good if not better.

This full synthetic automatic transmission fluid is an excellent alternative to expensive OEM-branded fluids. I used it for a transmission flush, and immediately noticed smoother, quieter shifting. It meets or exceeds many import vehicle specs, including Toyota, Honda, Nissan, and others, making it a versatile option. The fluid viscosity holds up well, and I haven’t experienced any slipping or hesitation after switching to it. Given its quality, affordability, and wide compatibility, this is a great choice for maintaining your transmission’s longevity.

After reading NUMEROUS reviews and threads on various platforms from here on Amazon to Reddit, I decided to go with this Valvoline import multi vehicle transmission fluid. I’m really glad I did. It works great, the transmission shifts perfectly, and I’m getting ready to change the fluid out again (doing the drain and fill operation). I’m certain that the “Only use genuine Honda fluid” people are either “following the other Honda snobs”, or had a personal bad experience, whether it was changing fluid using a non compatible type, or waiting until the transmission was already about to fail before changing the fluid for the very first time, and used something other than Honda fluid and the transmission died. I find it hard to believe that the 2007 Honda CRV owners manual on page 273 clearly states to use ATF-Z1 fluid, and the back of this bottle clearly states that it is ATF-Z1 compatible. I would think over the years that either a consumer, or Honda themselves, would have brought a law suit against Valvoline for misrepresentation of this product and its compatibility, just for monetary or proprietary reasons. I’ve used it without issue, 185,000 miles on the transmission, with ZERO issues. Don’t be afraid to save allot of money by using this $5 per quart fluid vs Honda’s $10-$12 per quart DW-1 (Honda changed formula to DW-1 but this is the backwards compatible fluid today). The original ATF-Z1 made by Honda is no longer available. Hope this review helps you make a better decision. Enjoy!

Purchased for 2008 Kia. Make sure to check your owner's manual and purchase the correct type of transmission fluid for your vehicle. A universal type transmission fluid may not be the best choice.

Right price

Ok

I have used this fluid in multiple T-IV and DexIII-H applications and it works flawlessly. That generation of fluids, c. 1998 to 2006, serve early PWM controlled transmissions, which have unique fluid needs vs. older generations. They also call for a specific viscosity to maximize control vs. newer fluids. This fluid is designed to do that, and it does it well.Valvoline is a high-trust corporation and an industry leader. If they recommend it for your application, it will work.
