Hi,

How to find a fluid in local store that can fit my 95 DI? For example, from some books like manual or others, they recommand the P/S fluid is:

Duckhams Q-matic
Esso ATF type G
Mobil ATF 210
Castrol TQF

But none of them could be find in my local auto store. Also, I checked web site of Esso, Mobil and Castrol and still can not find the products. So what kind fluid do I need to use for my P/S and Transmisson that I can find in the shop?

BTW: Seems the P/S fluid in AutoZone do not have much different. The only different is the brand and with/without conditionor.

I use Slick 50 in everything. Screw 30w, just run straight Slick 50. Tyranny, transfer case and diffs...Slick 50. Power steering...Slick 50. You wouldn't believe how cool your engine runs when you replace the water and rocks in your radiator with Slick 50. It also tastes good on steak.

Thx guys. I will try to find them. No idea why the manual just gave me some old product lists like that.

Wouldn't that void your Land Rover Certified warranty??


Hao,
Listen to Paul.
Remember, there are a lot of things you can find on the shelf in the UK that you can't in the US.
Dexron III. :-)
