Transmission fluid question
I purchased Mobill-1 Synthetic ATF. It says on the bottle that that it is multi-vehicle formula super-syn. But I cannot find on the bottle where it says anything about Delvac, TES289, Or TES389. It does say it can be used for r Dexron III applications. Is this the same as Mobil-1 Delvac? On the Mobil-1 web page, they do not mention Mobil-1 Delvac. Did they change to the multi-vehicle formula that I have purchased?
Is this Mobil-1 synthetic OK to use like the TES289 formula?

Another question. If the Mobil-1 Synthetic ATF multipurpose is not TES295, can I use the 50,000 change interval like the non-Transynd?

AFAIK, Allison states only the fluids listed in the link are recommended for the extended OCIs.
Anything further than that would just be my opinion and you know what those are worth..

No, as was just said, only those tested and approved on the Allison TES-295 list allow the longer change intervals.
