Oh, vx wanted £100 for ten litres of ATF, I bought D3 from euro parts for £60

Picked up a 20 l drum of semi synth for the engine while at vx tho

[05omegav6]

Probably 3 or so litres

Probably 3 or so litres

I was guessing more like 1 litre, and a litre in the cooler? Just guesses though

[Kevin Wood]

Yep, I have a recollection that in total it's about 9 litres, and about 7 required for a quick change (i.e. excluding any fluid in the TC and cooler plumbing, less spillages, the amount required to establish the traditional Dex-3 hairdo, etc.).

Just checked with my local VX, still £42.95 for 20 litres  on TC.

That's probably the usual nonsense in that they only stock 1L bottles "sealed for life, don't you know"*.

Yup. ATF Dexron 111 semi-synthetic 20 litres. Their code : UKTOGA06.
In both my gearboxes.
The 10W-40 engine semi-skimmed oil is £27.95  20 litres.

All on TC and plus VAT.

These are the same prices as last year, so quite a good deal.

[JamesV6CDX]

Arrrrgh I just paid £35 plus the dreaded for a 20l can

Isn't Dexron III fully synth?

[Shackeng]

According to VX, this is the pukka stuff, I asked when I bought it last year. I posted the sheet with the prices on last year, but can't find the post now. The prices are the same as them.
