Auto fluid
« on: 21 May 2010, 17:29:42 »

I checked the auto fluid in the 2.2 yesterday, I think it needs a top up.
Without me trawling down to the dealers for some GM stuff can I buy some from say Halfords or motor shop that's compatible.......is it Dex-3, can't seem to find that on Halfords website.
Car's up for sale but I want it tip top for any prospective buyer, so will top up the box :y

Mick ;)

Dex 3 not dot 3  :y

Halfords do their own, or comma, iirc
I use Fuchs titan 4000, but unlikely to see that locally (I get it delivered from OPIE oils - see discount in sales section)

Dexron III is the spec.

Yes you can buy the Comma stuff from Halfords, but if you plan to do the full job in the future (sumps off, clean filter etc) then i'd recommend buying Fuch's ATF4000 from Opie Oils.

you can mix any brand dexron 111 so i'd stick dome comma in it for top ups as said.

Fuchs oils are stocked by German and Swedish if you have one near you.
