NZ00Z3 187 Report post Posted December 22, 2016 Hi Will be changing the Auto Transmission fluid in a Jap import 2000 E46 323i with a A5S 360R (GM 5L40-E) transmission in it. Green lable on the sump, transmission code is VP. Research says it has ETL 7045E ATF in it, which sounds to be a special mix of DEX 3. Considering using: - Castrol Transmax Multi Vehicle, which is DEX 3 with special additives for Jap import cars. -Penrite Multi-Vehicle ATV LV, which is DEX 6, since its backwards compatible with all GM auto's What do people use in these auto's? Cheers Muzz Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gjm 3258 Report post Posted December 22, 2016 I use a Penrite ATF in our 320d. It's good - after 500000km there's still no issues. I've attached the Penrite application list. Penrite ATF application list.pdf Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
