Product Description
Red Line's D4 Automatic Transmission Fluid (ATF) is Red Line's most popular and versatile ATF. D4 is suitable for use where Dexron III, Dexron II, or Mercon fluids are recommended. D4 ATF is a fully-synthetic product designed to satisfy the improved low-temperature requirements which will be in the new Dexron IV specification, and the improved shear-stability requirements which will be part of the new Mercon specifications. D4 ATF also provides a GL-4 level of gear protection, making it a superior product for transmissions and transaxles like the Corvette's T-56. The balanced frictional characteristics provide smooth and consistent shifts for extended drain intervals. The superior stability compared to petroleum ATFs allows high-temperature operation without varnishing valves and clutches which leads to transmission failure. It's stability allows high-temperature operation without varnishing valves and clutches. Also provides improved shifting in cold weather. Red Line Synthetic Automatic Transmission Fluids are designed to provide improved thermal stability. The products identified as Synthetic ATF, Synthetic D4 ATF, and Synthetic C+ ATF have better thermal stability and lower volatility characteristics than a petroleum ATF and provides a much lower viscosity at lower temperatures, providing much quicker shifting in cold weather.Red Line 30504-12PK D4 Automatic Transmission Fluid (ATF) - 1 Quart, (Pack of 12) Review
My 2000 Accord had started slipping at a bit over 100,000 miles, especially in 1st and 2nd gear. It ended up triggering the engine warning light. Took it into the dealership and they said the torque converter was going and that I needed to replace the transmission with a rebuilt to the tune of $4,500.I did some research online and found out that Honda has had many problems with their post year 2000 transmissions in several vehicles, including the Accord. But several people had replaced their transmission fluid with Red Line D4 ATF and also installed an inline Magnefine AFT filter. (Honda's ATF filter is internal to the transmission and is not changeable.) Seeing that many others had good results, I figured the $50-60 for the price of an full ATF change it was worth a try.
Immediately after doing a full fluid replacement (and I mean the very first drive) I noticed a dramatic improvement in the shifting. I almost couldn't not feel the car shift at all anymore and could only tell by the engine noise and tach. I don't recall the transmission every shifting that smoothly. I cleared the engine light/warning code, and have been driving fine ever since. That was over 3,000 miles ago.
I've since done a D&R on my 2008 Odyssey and also noticed that the sifting is much smoother. So glad to have found out that this was a possible solution and avoided the complete transmission replacement. Saved me over $4,000. I'm planning on a D&R on each vehicle each time I do a standard oil change. 2-3 quarts/change is very cheap insurance against replacing a transmission.
I don't review many items, but I'm so pleased with the results of this product, I had to give it kudos.
