[QUOTE="Bill Ellis, post: 622275, member: 59929"] MaxLife ATF was renamed as Valvoline Mercon V about a year ago. It is not and never has been the same product as MaxLife DexronIII/Mercon. If you do a web search on MaxLife ATF, you will find all the info stating that it is Mercon V rated. You cannot find that anymore on the Valvoline web site. So, if the Valvoline store is using MaxLife, not MaxLife DexronIII/Mercon, it is OK in the Trac. Many owners, including myself, have done so and have not had a problem. MaxLife is OK. MaxLife DexronIII/Mercon is not. There are probably many drums of MaxLife still in the warehouses and at Valvoline dealers. When these are used, they are replaced with ones labeled Mercon V. [/QUOTE]
