Re: Dexron III ATF

I picked up some at my local autozone. The brand is valvoline. It's the only dexron iii I could find.

Walmart or your auto store has it. They are backwards compatible. Dex 5 meets the requirements for Dex 3.

Re: Dexron III ATF

Dex 5 is synthetic and dex iii is not. Tremec suggests dex iii or mobile 1 ATF. They said dex iii is the best but mobile 1 would suffice.

Re: Dexron III ATF

I'm not sure for the t-56. I know the t3650 takes 3.2 quarts or 3 liters.

Re: Dexron III ATF

I'm getting ready to fill my newly installed t56 (1hour ago I installed it). It's just at 4 quarts and maybe 2 oz. that's the most conclusive answer I've found. I bought mobile 1 ATF (4) quarts, I'm also planning on putting in 2 oz of gm syncromesh.

Re: Dexron III ATF

I just put 4 quarts and 2 oz of gm syncromesh in my t56. Simply drain the t56, re install and tighten the drain plug. Next undo the fill plug on the side and pour the ATF fluid in the top of the trans where the shifter would be. Do 3 full quarts, then add 2 oz of syncromesh, them continue with ATF until you start to see fluid coming out of the fill plug. Male sure your vehicle is level

Its no problem at all bud! I went to a Chevy service center and picked a quart up. Its stupidly expensive at $17. See if you've got any friends who want to split it with you for their fluid changes. I used about 2-3 oz of it

Re: Dexron III ATF

Just my 2 cents here but whenever dealing with automotive fluids always remove the fill plug first!!!!! Then you aren't screwed if the plug strips or breaks
