    Mixing ATF in tranny

    I have 2 quarts of Castrol Synthetic ATF. I was thinking of adding them to my tranny. I've been using Mobil1 ATF for the longest. I usually drain and fill my tranny fluid 1-2x a year, so at this point, it is likely all Mobil1 ATF. Would people not recommend mixing or would this be fine?

    ARX and Gas additives

    Help a newb, Green vs Gold?

    I'm looking for a heavier weight oil for my car (Lexus SC300) and came across this site. M1 is way too thin. Started using Royal Purple, now hearing about GC. I want to try 5W-40. How can you differentiate between green and gold? Can you just tell by looking at the bottle? Thanks.
