Power steering fluid

Castrol Transmax Import Multi-Vehicle ATF good to use in my 1995? Thanks

 

Our trucks require Dexron 2 (or 3) ATF.

 

I believe that Castrol is DEX III, any clarification on that?

 

I just use the cheap stuff from Wally World. Like 2.50$ a quart...

 

Just read the information on the container. You want a fluid that is compatible with Dextron 3. I use a Valvoline Dex/Merc for my 3rd Gen 4runner.

 

If you interested in renewing your fluid, I have two techniques for you.

I have 2 extra quarts of this. Castrol says it's a go. For you Tacoma fanatics, am I good with this? Thanks

 

I used Castrol DEX/MERC in my truck and it works fine. There is no Dextron III on the market anymore, but anything labeled DEX/MERC will work in our trucks.

 

I used Valvoline Dex/Merc Synthetic ATF when I installed a new steering rack. No problems so far after 10k miles.

 

Will this stuff work? Pretty sure the answers yes, just want to make sure though.

 

Mercon V is compatible with Dextron 3. That will work.

 

Just look at the back of the container and if it says something to the effect of "compatible with Dex III" then you are good to go.
