I am looking for a DEX3 comparable ATF but I want a synthetic, and looking at the data sheet, It seems that this Penrite ATF fits the bill.
PENRITE ATFwww.penriteoil.com.au/assets/pis_pdfs/ATF%20FS%20(Full%20Syn.).pdf
However , on the datasheet it says it is also Dex VI compatible. But I thought that DEX VI must have lower 100C cst than the rated 7.4 ? Are there similar ATF with full syn base oil yet with DEX3 levels of 100C viscosity ?
Also with the current fill in my ATF being DEX 3 dino, Would a drain and fill of the pan of about 2 quarts at a go , be ok for the toyota a340e ?That means I will be mixing and diluting the current DEX 3 fluid for about a 100km and repeating the process about 3 times for a complete change.
I am planning to start with the power steering first though just to see if the Syn ATF will improve the steering assist when the fluid is hot, as i suspect the DEX3 dino is shearing down.
