ACDelco Dexron VI Transmission Fluid

Backward compatible with previous DEXRON automatic transmission fluids and can be used as a replacement for older vehicles/transmissions originally using previous DEXRON fluids, ACDelco Dex VI provides consistent shift performance, even in extreme conditions.

Suitable for use in vehicles that specify the following requirements:

Fully licensed and approved by GM,
Recommended for use in GM transmissions model year 2006 and newer calling for DEXRON-VI Automatic Transmission Fluid (replaces DEXRON-III and DEXRON-II(E)
Recommended for any other vehicle manufacturer that calls for DEXRON-VI, III, or II(E).

Not for use in CVT (Continuously Variable Transmissions) or DCT (Dual Clutch Transmissions) which require specialized fluids.

Maintenance Tips:

When the fluid becomes contaminated, drain the fluid, flush the system with DEXRON-VI Automatic Transmission Fluid, and refill with new fluid.

Make sure to flush the transmission with DEXRON-VI Automatic Transmission Fluid, not a solvent.

Do not add any aftermarket additives to the fluid – they are not necessary and should not be used.

Transmission fluid should be replaced when it becomes contaminated.

Anything but transmission fluid in the transmission is considered a contaminant.

Always use the recommended type of transmission fluid in your vehicle, as referred to in your owner’s manual.

Typical fluid change intervals for automatic transmissions range from 40,000 to 60,000 miles depending on the severity of the usage. See your owner’s manual.

In addition to fluid replacement, it is important to regularly check your transmission fluid level.

A low transmission fluid level can cause the vehicle to shift improperly or not at all.

Stay vigilant – warning signs of low transmission fluid may not appear until serious damage has already occurred.
