Valvoline MaxLife ATF Multi-Vehicle Full Synthetic Automatic Transmission Fluid 1 QT (Pack of 2)

I own a Honda Odyssey and recently performed a 3x drain and fill transmission fluid change over the course of a few weeks, using a different brand of fluid purchased here on Amazon. Despite the fluid looking relatively clean each time, the transmission slipping actually became more noticeable, which was really frustrating. However, after just one drain and fill using Valvoline MaxLife, the slipping improved significantly, almost completely gone. I’m confident that with one more fluid change, the issue will be fully resolved.

I’ve used this ATF for about a decade and a half, if not more. They’ve gradually been going into everything from the late 2000 vehicles, to the early 2020 year model vehicles as well. It’s also an amazing upgrade for the older automatic vehicles that take standard viscosity spec ATF (ATF+4, Dexron III, Mercon V).I’ve used these in even the seemingly picky BMW 8 and 9-speed automatic ZF transmissions (Honda and Acura have some of these as well), and it works wonders. It’s cheaper than the factory OEM ATF, of course, so you do have to use the alternative ATF to your own discretion.A lot of the vehicle makes are NOT partnered, nor do they have the same patent for the trans fluid; thus, you’re merely using a RECOMMENDED trans fluid that SHOULD be good for your particular vehicle.Regardless, I personally haven’t had any negative issues on the countless year models, makes, and different transmissions I’ve used this ATF on. There are a few batches of containers during 2021-2024, that did have conflicting information labels, which got recalled. Most of the proper containers will have the BIG list of recommended vehicles and transmissions that this ATF can go into. Even if you get the recalled containers with the smaller list, it’s perfectly fine to use (just a labeling mistake)!

My car may be an oldie but man is she comfy and reliable! I try and change the transmission fluid every 50k miles since it's so easy. Each time i change the fluid with Valvoline, she shifts smoother. No bad things to say about this product. It works!

Just had my transmission rebuilt on my 7.3 e350 power stroke. 4r100. It USED to call for mercon 1. But that’s when the transmission was made on 2000. But I have done tons of research and since the transmission was rebuilt it needs mercon V. And this is also synthetic. Rebuild costs are high and I wanted to protect my investment. Since I needed approx 18 quarts (I have a large 6.0 cooler) this was the best budget option to get. So far transmission is 120-130 degrees and shifts good. So I’m happy

I'd been using Amsoil full-synthetic in my 2008 Honda Civic EX automatic transmission since ~ 45,000 miles at my first transmission oil change.Amsoil was a HUGE improvement over the OEM Honda ATF fluid, so I ran it until ~ 170,000 miles, changing the oil per the owner's manual recommendation.About 3,000 miles ago, I started towing a 5'x8' utility trailer with this vehicle, towing motorcycles, yard waste, etc. In total, the loads maxxed out at ~ 700 pounds. Since I started towing, the transmission started making a very loud, tinny/whining noise when shifting at higher RPM --- and it never did this before.Concerned I was damaging the transmission, I tried a few products that seemed to improve things for a bit (like Lucas Transmission Fix), but nothing seemed to really resolve the new noises.So as a last-ditch effort, I decided to try this Valvoline Multi-Vehicle (ATF) Full Synthetic Automatic Transmission Fluid and did 4 transmission drain/refill cycles, driving 10 miles between each drain cycle, and refilling with 2500-cc each time.At current time, I am happy to report the transmission noises and general performance is ~ the same as it was before when I had no concerns/started towing the trailer.For the time being, I will only be using this product in my 2008 Honda Civic EX with 175,000 miles from here forward. It really does seem to be a superior product.

Good, but I have had to give this to someone else, as my car had to be junked, recently. Beyond this, I must say it is rather expensive, even for synthetic.

This stuff is the best there is. Great product

i use this product often. don't buy into the b.s about lifetime trans fluid or 100k mile service on trans. fluid changes are cheaper than buying a transmission. i always do my trans service every 15-20k miles and never had a problem of shifting or fluid burning up. this is also a synthetic trans fluid so it's far superior to conventional trans fluid.
