Since BigD1 alerted us to a good online source of Kendall products, I've been thinking of using Kendall Versa-Trans in my '03 Hyundai Elantra. I was going to use Castrol Transmax Import Multi-Vehicle, but the Kendall can be had for about half the cost. Just wondering if anyone has an opinion on the Kendall stuff (it says it's suitable for Hyundai).
Kendall Versa Trans?

Its a synthetic blend fluid that says it meets Hyundai/Mitsubishi specs. Should be fine.
Valvoline Max-Life is the fluid I have been using in Hyundai/Mitsubishi transmissions and it has worked well also.
As long as the fluid says it meets the specs it should be fine. The biggest issue I have seen is not changing it enough, not the name on the bottle.

Agreed- I have used the Versa Trans in my Elantra and it worked fine.
Not sure if you're aware, but you can re-learn shift adaptives on that trans by getting it up to temp (120+) and from a stop accelerate up through the gears several times. They're really vague in their description, but I'm assuming you'd want to accelerate as you would normally drive. For grins, I also shift manually too.

Interesting. Thanks.

I am sure the Kendall would work just fine but Castrol makes some top notch ATFs. Valv Maxlife is also really good.
