Transmission Fluid/filter Swap

[Shaw520]

As with every newly acquired vehicle,.. I will be dropping the trans pan and changing out the fluid and filter,.. I like to do the flush method of removing tranny line and run till air bubbles, then drop pan and filter,.. reassemble, then ad fluid and run till fluid runs clean out of line.
Question is I want to use Mobile 1 Synthetic,.. Im a fan of Mobil 1, but would love to hear all recommenations on fluid types and prices,... as we all know synthetic ATF's are getting very pricey,.. I can get Mobile 1 Synthetic ATF for $57 per Gal. which is about the cheapest Ive found.

I'm a Mobil One synthetic fan myself but have stuck with AC Delco Dexron VI for my truck. AC Delco 10-9395 for $27.40 a gallon via Amazon Prime.

I bought an expensive high performance trans from Performabuilt and they stated either DexronVI or synthetis is fine.

Dexron VI is synthetic.

I thought it was synthetic blend but you made me look it up and you're correct- full synthetic. I just paid $29.33 on Anazon prime.

Prices fluctuate on Amazon like the stock market.

I used the Delco-6 synthetic, myself. I always recommend it

The Walmart brand in Full Synthetic, claims to be DEXRON VI equivalent @ $21 per Gal. I read somewhere where this stuff is made by the same company that makes AC Delco Dexron VI,..theres a couple youtube comparisons.

Dex vi is dex vi. They all have to meet the same requirements. That being said, I still like "my brand" as do many.
