Selection of Lubricant



Selection of Lubricant

It is important that the proper lubricants be used in the 42LE transaxle. MOPAR ATF+4 (Automatic Transmission Fluid-Type 9602, or equivalent) should be used in the transmission side of the transaxle. Substitute fluids can induce torque converter clutch shudder.

The differential side of the transaxle should be filled with MOPAR petroleum based hypoid gear lubricant 80W-90. Synthetic gear lubricants should not be used.
