Default Re: Castrol has discontinued TQ95

Quote:
Castrol TQ95 being phased out must have started early in another country.
No; it was always solely an Australian made product for use in the Australin designed and made BTR In DSI transmission.

Quote:
nce Castrol produces the two ATF's and recommend the alternative ATF, surely it should be ok since they know what properties is in the ATF.
I would imagine there would also be other brand equivalents that has been used.
Nah; I trust the advice of the transmission maker and designer over a multi-national oil company focussed on the bottom line that has at best a somewhat doubtful ethics record (see https://waronwant.org/news-analysis/...rporate-crimes and https://www.bartleby.com/essay/Ethic...-BP-FKCN835ZTC etc But yes I am a cynic and sceptic by nature and getting more so as I age.

It would be nice to no the frictional index figures for all the ATFs in question so a comparison could be made.
