Anyone know what the difference is between 'Ford' & 'GM' Trans fluid??? I just grabbed the first bottle, & filled the VN up, forgetting that we have the Ford here which is goin thru power steering fluid like water.... anyhoo.... Have I posioned my VN now?? *sigh* this is why I shouldnt allow Fords in my driveway, cus Im so used to only have holden products, I dont check labels! D.
You should be ok, since both cars will more than likely be able to take either dextron 2 or 3 trans fluid.
Dont know about that. When you look at them there is always a specific ford one and a GM one, both the same dexron rating. AirStrike :air:
Thats just because the Ford one is designed to break faster!!! Seriously though, I wouldn't have thought it would do any harm. K-mart junk is doing fine in my car at the moment:whistling ! It should all do the same job shouldn't it?
Depends... In one of our other cars we have to use a specific trans fluid... If we dont the car stalls all the time on idle etc... We found out when the mechanic put in a trans fluid he figured was fine for it, but was different to that reccomended by the manufacturer. Useless mechanic anyway, he put a screwdriver or something through the radiator then just patched it up and didnt mention it... the head ended up cracking because of it... cost us a fortune.
Did you put it in the Power steering or gearbox, wont matter in the PS you can put any crap in there in a pinch
lol good 1 gearbox mate i think it should be ok maybe just to be on the safe side just go to a trans place and ask them just to be on the safe side
yeah Ill give DRW a call this morning I think, was going to ring them about service & shift kit anyways D.
w00t, Good news!!! Ford into Holden fine!!! phew, but Not the other way around!!! cant put Holden into Ford But bad news is, hard seals in my trans damn it! Price on shift kit & service..... $220!!! w00t that will be shortly after exhaust me thinks D.
