So much Smoother

published

I’ve been using Penrite Multi Vehicle full synthetic Automatic Transmission Fluid in my 20O3 Rover 75 V6 for the last three months. I did 3 “changes” totalling 12 litres. It’s made a huge difference to the smoothness of transmission changes.

I had been using Nulon Multi Vehicle Automatic Transmission Fluid. Fluid changes made no difference. Itwas a little jerky while changing up and down.

Penrite has really improved transmission changes. The Rover 75 uses the Jatco transmission JF506E as found in some Jaguar, Landrover Freelander 1, Mazda, Volkswagen and Ford vehicles.

So impressed I am, I intend to change over to the Penrite Engine Oil from the Nulon I currently use.



Purchased in December 2021 at Supercheap Auto for A$48.00.

Amazing made such a difference

used on my jeep gc 2.7crd, was throwing codes & rough changing, after doing filter & using this product, made such a difference now changing smoothly & more fluently. Had my doubts it would have made such a difference but it did.

Hi _george doug miller,

We appreciate you taking the time to leave us a positive review.

Brought my a340e back to life!

published

My auto became a little mushy after a couple long drives, so I decided to flush and replace filters etc. Ran 12 litres of penrite ATF fs through until it was coming out clean and the box has never felt so good. Happily chirps through second and third now, and as a bonus the overdrive engages when it's supposed to now (didn't even realise it wasn't working correctly until changing to this fluid). Torque converter locks and unlocks without me even bring able to notice now, fuel economy has improved, and there's noticeably less heat radiating from the trans tunnel.
Penrite for every fluid in all my vehicles, every time.

This stuff got me out of a pickle!

published

I was on a cross country motorcycle tour with a buggered clutch. I know not the intended purpose, but this bailed me out of a sticky situation about 800km's from civilization.

Air in the clutch and not sure who to thank either the Oberon or Penrite but this stuff was the goods.

used recently in my 2005 vz sv6

published

my gearbox recently blew up in my holden commodore 2005 sv6 got a new box and service it with the recommended dex III for the first 1000ks...

so i dropped the oil and I followed my local parts, guys, opinion and used this oil (Penrite ATF FS) (Automatic Transmission Multi-Vehicle Fully Synthetic) and I have to say the shifters are far smoother than the recommended Dexron III Auto Trans fluid

I really hope this serves as a recommendation you should follow well-done penrite.
absolutely loving the penrite range now

Consistent performer.

Have used Penrite lubricants for a quarter of a century .... and have been thoroughly satisfied with the brand. Have been thrilled to see them fully develop their product line to include the likes of this fine transmission fluid. Use it in our 2013 Grand Cherokee - the first auto we've owned, and ... as usual ... am thoroughly satisfied.

No 'clunk' after using this oil.

published

Decided to use this oil for my 1996 Mitsubishi Magna auto gearbox. This model is well know for a 'clunk' when changing down 2nd to 1st gear. After a complete flush and new filter the 'clunk' disappeared after a week of driving and gear changes are now silent and silky smooth...wow, amazing for a 20 y/o gearbox.

Works extremely well

published

This product was bought out of necessity. I accidentally drained my ATF and so needed to top up with 2 L. Found that this meets my car's required type. 2 L is out of the total 5, meaning 3 L of old ATF is mixed with the new. However, the shifts seem twice as smooth. More power too. So am tempted to renew my mixed ATF.

Clearly a great product to strongly recommend. My first time using Penrite too. Impressive.

You're welcome Penrite. Just my candid feedback.

Great product, replaced fluid, transmission works better

published

Ford Mondeo 1999, over 185 kms, the shift was rough, I just bought the car and the service history was questionable on the log books, replaced fluid with questionable transmission, it shifts smoother now
Happy with product, I will use remainder of the product in the power steering system as I've read its ok the use for this purpose as well.

Great Alternative to the OE Nissan NS-1 Fluid

published

Ours has 85k on the clock. Fluid change was not recommend by factory but we tried this and could feel a difference with the Penrite CVT fluid in.

The Dualis shifts better and feels not so lazy as with the OE NS-1 fluid.

A lot cheap then Nissan's NS-1 fluid too which is great. And its Australian Made!!!

Excellent transmission fluid for 2005 Toyota Camry Altise

published

My 2005 Camry had 150,000 km and never had transmission fluid replaced before. The shifting was getting rougher since last year, so I decided to replace the transmission fluid. I sucked out 1.5 litres of the transmission fluid and add "Penrite Automatic Transmission Multi-Vehicle Fully Synthetic". Repeated the same procedure after 3 days. The shifting is about 3~5 times smoother now. I am planning to do repeat the same procedure again as most of fluid in the transmission is still old.
inexpensive and working very well with 2005 Toyota Camry Altise

Fantastic Full Synthetic Automatic Transmission Fluid!!

published

Used it on my 2004 V6 3.5L Nissan Maxima and Honda Accord Euro 2.4I-Vtec during usual transmission change. The result has been extremely smooth gear shifts. In my nissan maxima gear changes has been unnoticeable in Drive mode - Yes, its silky smooth to the point where you cannot even tell the gears are changing. Great improvement in the Honda Accord Euro during up and down gear shifts - very smooth. Will be good for another 50,000kms. Excellent work Penrite. Well Done.
Excellent value for money for a full synthetic multi vehicle transmission fluid that is at par with the best in the world.

FS

Hi there, Can I use either atf fs or atf lv for a 2008 Nissan skyline 370gt coupe? I noticed the atf lv is a newer product however I’m just wondering how come the atf lv is only 2.5x smooth shift durability and the atf fs is 5x? Does that mean the fs is superior to lv? Cheers

Hi Jordan . To be honest i'm not certain . Best to check with your vehicle owner's manual or ask a qualified mechanic . Generally speaking " Fully Synthetic " fluids are available in many forms to suit most vehicles . Just check the one you are asking about is suitable specifically to your vehicle . Take Care .

Hi Hanifi . I don't know all the vehicle suitability for the Penrite Full Synthetic ATF . Check in your car owner's manual what type your BMW takes . Then if you want go to the Penrite website www.penrite.com.au and put in your car details and the website will recommend the correct ATF Fluid that suits your own car . If available it is always better to use a Full Synthetic Fluid . Just make sure its the correct one that suits your own vehicle . Take care .

Hi Hanifi, Unfortunately, the ATF FS is not suitable for your transmission, we recommend to use our ATF BMV which is a crossover from the BMW oil. https://www.penriteoil.com.au/applications/car-4wd/automatic-transmission/atf-bmv-full-syn

If you have any other questions your welcome to contact our Technical Team on 1300 736 748 or email [email protected]

Hi,
Thank you for your answer. As per your advice for my car 2007 118i BMW e87 automatic petrol 2 liter I use ATF BMV (Full Syn).
In the website the BMW 8322 0142516 is marked with red colour. What does it means.

Hi Ahmed, Can you please let us know what year and model your Kia is and if you are looking to use our ATF FS or ATF LV?

ANDY
ANDY

Hi Ahmed . Make sure whatever fluid ( ATF ) you decide to use it is compatible for your vehicle . The is the normal ATF ( multi vehicle Full Synthetic )viscocity Dextron III and there is an LV ( Low Viscocity ) variation of this in the market . Make sure you use the correct one compatible for your vehicle .Check in your car's owners manual for the OEM spec fluid and then if you wish get an equivalent or better compatible fluid . Always remember, in some cases if your transmission was slipping or shifting PRIOR to an ATF change, more than likely your transmission had issue prior which by replacing your transmission oil after this it will more than likely make no improvements or can make the transmission worse as the new fluid will be much more slippery and magnify an existing issue prior to the change .

Thanks Andy
Must be the old oil genuine oil that made more friction before it was changed.
