      I think I bought 3 or 4 (maybe 5? not sure) quarts of ATF for the tranny, and 3 quarts for the rear end. I think I had 1 full quart left over for each of them, plus a little in the opened bottles. Just fill them until they begin to overflow. Let them finish dripping out and put the fill plug back in.

      I don't think you're supposed to buy ATF.
      I was just there like 2 days ago and I think the ATF said it was for chrystler cars or Ford only.

      Just get Dexron III with Mercon unless you do a COMPLETE flush and put in synthetic fluid. All of the synthetic fluids we looked at didn't recommend to mix the 2 together.

        ATF just stands for Automatic Transmission Fluid. Dexron III/Mercon is just a type of ATF. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

              Dexton III is ATF ;) . When I changed mine, it was before I found this site, and the dealer just said to put plain ATF fluid in.
