Has anyone ever used pennzoil dexron-III/mercon fluid.Is it any good?
I wanted to buy the mobil (as thats my oil of choice) but it said mecon/mercon V so i didnt want to take the chance with my trany.
Thanks for your input.

Oh bottle also said it was H specification approved,what ever that means lol.

 

I use Standard or Vavoline, as long as it say Mercon.. and not mercon V.. Any oil rated mercon should be OK.. Be sure to remove the oil from your converter.. someone on here can tell you the method if you don't know.. I am lucky.. I have a drain plug. They stop putting in the drain plugs in converters after Aug 2001 mfg date..

 

i used pennziol when i did my transmission service, i did the service at 38K and i have 75K on the truck now, everything seems to be fine. not sure if mine said "H" on it, but i can check for you if you want.

 

How much is it going for? Is it Mercon compatible?

 

if you are asking me PSnut i am not quite sure what i paid, i think i paid something around 2.50 a quart, that is in canadian funds of course, and the penzziol i used was mercon/dexron-III.

i am pretty sure if it is mercon/dexronIII it will be compatible with just mercon, but if i am wrong someone please step in and correct me.

 

I use the Pennzoil Dex III/Mercon in my truck - it's the only thing I have used so far. Wishing I went with Mobil, or at least stocked up with some, before they changed to the dual rating.....

 

Thanks for the tip.

Thanks,just wanted to make sure it was a good oil.


I bought it for 9 bucks a gallon.And it does say on the bottle that it can be mixed with any mercon.So I guess that it is mercon compatible.




I wished that i would have stocked up on the mobil too before they changed over,oh well.



Thanks for the respones...

 

Here is how to change all the trans fluid, even without a torque converter drain plug:
