Hi all,
1996 avalon 160K miles
I did a trans fluid change (drain and fill only) twice, 100 miles inbetween. I changed the filter on the second time. I used Mobil 1 atf. Now it shifts HARD. Like a GM THM 350 with a shift kit. Is the Mobil 1 thinner?
I'm thinking of doing another drain and fill with Redline High Temp atf since it's thicker to smooth out the shifting. It's still DexronII certified. Mobil 1 is supposed to meet the toyota std (dexron II). I'm not worried about the cold since a "COLD" winter is only 30 degrees here in Phx, Az.
I'd like people's thought on this please. Redline and Mobil 1 both refused to comment on this issue. Great customer support.
Thx Guru's
