   It’s the right stuff, and OK for lightly used daily drivers, but I’m trying something else out now., July 26, 2015

   The product is what it says it is. I bought one quart and used to it top off a newly-purchased 113,000 mile Hyundai car with an auto transmission.

   However… Initially I was convinced that SP-III ATF’s – that are only sold by Hyundai / Kia dealers and here on Amazon – were the way to go. Since then, there seem to have been enough people who tested out Valvoline MaxLife ATF Dex/Merc in their Hyundai/Kias with really good results. ALso, I’ve read that the designs of many of these transmissions were poor in regard to cooling, and the suspicion is that the OEM ATF, like this Hyundai SP-III here, were made of such cheap base stocks that it breaks down too fast in hot / severe driving conditions. Some even recommend an ATF cooler be installed if one plans to use this ATF.

   I just did a partial change on my Hyundai yesterday, and I used 4 quarts of the MaxLife ATF. I’m going to be assessing its performance, hard, since I use it as a sales car and often get stuck in 5-lane gridlock on what should be a 65 MPH road. Initial testing around town after the change yesterday seemed very promising. Smooth shifts, and more shifting when it should instead of holding out a little longer.

   Apparently Hyundai changed the specs ND the 2012 Hyundai now require SP 4. I have to return the product.

   Used OEM type fluid for 2002 Hyundai, August 13, 2016

   OEM transmission fluid, combined with extraction pump ordered, made fluid change easy via the dip stick tube total job time about 20 minutes from start to finish. I didn’t want to risk using more modern possible replacement, since manufacturer had not said it was suitable for that model.
