LV fluid is probably the cause of your problems. It's WAY too thin for your transmission. If you leave it in I can almost guarantee that you're going to need a new trans. This one will have so much damage and wear that practically nothing inside will be salvageable.

No, it is not. That's the same as saying these trucks are basically Fiat Spyders.

Max Life is just a sub-brand for Valvoline. The name is on whatever type lubricant, coolant or fluid you're looking for.
