AMERIGUARD Steel Drum

AMERIGUARD® Dex III/Merc Automatic Transmission Fluid

Passenger Car Transmission Oil Transmission & Driveline Oil

AMERIGUARD® Automatic Transmission Fluid is engineered to extend transmission life and provide smooth operation of Ford and General Motors vehicles where a DEXRON III/MERCON® fluid is specified.

Automotive transmissions have evolved dramatically, requiring highly specialized fluids for unique applications. Only the most advanced transmission fluids meet the critical challenges of effectively balancing performance, strength and durability.

  • Delivers superior friction stability to maintain smooth, consistent shifting and prevent shudder.
  • Provides a strong oil film to prevent metal-to-metal contact between rotating parts to prevent wear.
  • Resists thickening due to high operating temperatures.

APPLICATIONS

Also recommended for all transmissions requiring DEXRON® II or IIE, or Type A transmission fluids. Do not use this product in General Motors vehicles after model year 2005 and Ford® vehicles after model year 2006. Do not use this product in transmissions that specify Ford Type F, MERCON® V fluids or GM Dexron® VI fluid.
