I have a friend who took her car to Jiffy lube
(I know this is bad)
Car is an Acura Legend, automatic transmission with 100,000 miles.
They changed her oil and recommended a transmission service for $90. the car hold about 3 qts in the transmission.
They used bulk automatic transmission fluid.
They then added Smart Blend 7176 ATF converter.
I know from BITOG
that 7176 is also known as ATF-3 a Chrysler specific product for older Chrysler transmission.
Should I let her run this fluid, will a 7176 converted bulk fluid (probably dexron III equivalent) cause problems in a Honda/Acura transmission.
She does not have much $ and needs to have the car last.
I could do the drain and fill method to change it out if this fluid is a potential problem maker.
Thanks for your help to Patricia and me.
