brobradh77 Posted January 18, 2007 Report Share Posted January 18, 2007 When I talked to Zippy he recommended dexron 6 Trans. fluid . I went to the parts store and all they have is Dexron 5 and said they have never heard of Dexron 6. Did he mean 5 and accidently said 6? Will 5 work good?Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zippy Posted January 19, 2007 Report Share Posted January 19, 2007 What is Dexron 5? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brobradh77 Posted January 19, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 19, 2007 I went into auto zone and told them I wanted some Dexron 6 trans. fluid and they looked at me like I was idiot. They said they have never heard of 6 and they pulled a bottle of Mobil 1 off the shelf and said we have this Dexron 5 Trans. fluid and you will need 2 cases to fill your trans. I dunno. Do I need 12 quarts to fill my trans. I should have called you but I did not wantt to bother you if I didnt have to. Thanks Zippy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ro9beam2002 Posted January 19, 2007 Report Share Posted January 19, 2007 (edited) i think as of right now, you can only purchase dexron vI "6"... at the dealership.. but have heard that penzoil will have the mixture at the parts stores soon...

T-Bag Posted January 23, 2007 Report Share Posted January 23, 2007 (edited) Yeah same thing happened to me, Dexron/Mercon VI is only available through GM dealers. I picked up a quart the other day just to top mine off and it only cost around $4.00. By the way it's not a Mobil product...

hot rod truck Posted January 24, 2007 Report Share Posted January 24, 2007 It's available if you have an AC-Delco distributor nearby. Part # 10-9029/88861037 $3.69qt. 12qts is what you'll need for 4L65E. DexronVI will retrofit where DexronIII is called for by GM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
