Hello! I have Mitsubishi Montero Sport, 1999. I need to change automatic transmission fluid, and mixed up - one tells me to put Mobil ATF-220, another advises to put Mitsubishi ATF SP 3, the third offered Castrol (do not remember the product code). Your advice on this is highly appreciated.
Regards,
Ok, Mobil atf is more of a universal fluid, where Mitsubishi atf would be specifically formulated to be used in their products. Personally I would use the Mitsubishi as it is brand specific, but you can use either one with more than likely no problems.
I definetly highly reccomend you to use Mitsubishi genuine Diamond SPIII Fluid, you'll feel your transmission more powerfull, and will help you to keep it just like new. I've tried with "Import multivehicle" from Castrol but a within 6 months the gears began to slip.
I went with Castrol from autozone and added a bottle of Lucas transmission with it to help the hard shift from 1st gear
All you need is regular automatic trany fluid you only need specialty fluid if you use your car off road daily
On a 99 the vehicle should be able to use a multi vehicle blend from any manufacturer. The best fluid to use is always from your dealer but this vehicle can also use a multi vehicle blend.
