I got 26 quarts of this stuff over the past couple weeks at this price. It has a wide range of compatibility per the product information sheet: https://sharena21.springcm.com/Pu...df3793b338
I'm using it right now in my vehicle's power steering which calls for Dexron II / III and it's doing fine. I'll be using it in the transmission which calls for Toyota WS.

Cheap enough to buy a lot of this first, then shop around for a hybrid car with an automatic transmission!

Yup, I got 13 qts of it a few weeks ago for this price.
Will use it in my Crown Vic that uses Mercon LV, My Scion xB for Toyota WS, and Hyundai for SP-IV. May go grab another 8 qts at another store for my mom's Kia that uses SP-IV as well.

Can this be used to top off power steering fluid? I have an older Mazda that I think takes Mercon V

This is the same as maxlife ... The other both product sheets of the chemicals are mostly the same and the international one of this is the same as maxlife and can be used in all those vehicles.

OK?
I am not using it in a CVT or dual-clutch transmission.
This is nearly identical to the Maxlife multi vehicle ATF (which I also use), so no issues in my vehicles.

Good to know. On my second fluid change with the Maxlife (from Tractor Supply clearance) with no issues on Fusion CVT. Snagged 15 quarts of this stuff.

It wouldn't surprise me if the stores that show this "In Stock" are the ones with out-of-date inventory counts. Nice deal for those who got it.

FYI the valvoline data sheet says it's Mercon and dexron compatible so if you have an older tranny go for it

Please clarify, Can this be used in a regular automatic transmission like a Toyota.

I realize it has extra additives but it says WS compatible and I'm seeing contradictory information..

I already poured it in perhaps I need to flush it out.

It was in the spec sheet for this stuff that was linked in a earlier comment by user TownCivilian...
