SSP Pro Gold: SO WORTH IT!!!!!!!

So I just changed my tranny fluid and filter at 18k miles and damn did it make a difference! Shifts smoother and faster and made the weird clanking noise at idle become quiter. Also I am seeing better gas mileage too but that may just be me! Anywho, thanks SSP for the GOLD STUFF!!!!

I just bought the regular fluid for my car and SSP wanted around $200 for one gallon. That would cost $200 more for the job. That just seems crazy to me. Im still getting over that fact I just paid $100 a gallon. Glad your pleased with your car.

If you have a drivetrain warranty, consider at least discussing use of after-market SSTF with your dealer in advance.

I'm sure the after-market fluids are good. Just be aware of any impact it may have on your ability to get the SST replaced under warranty, should it have a problem.

That is why ssp changed the color of the sstf from pro red to pro gold so by can't tell. Unless by run some kind of hemical test which I doubt they would spend the time on lol
