Automatic transmission fluids
Transmission fluid really is liquid engineering. Castrol auto transmission fluid can restore smooth shifting, even in vehicles with over 75,000 miles on the odometer.
Engineered to exceed specifications
Automatic transmissions are now more complex than ever, placing ever-greater demands on auto transmission fluids. In fact, the automatic transmission is perhaps the most complicated mechanical component in a car. The automatic transmission combines electrical & mechanical systems, hydraulics and computer processors to smoothly shift through the gears and transfer engine power to the drive wheels.
Castrol has in place a wide range of automatic transmission fluids which have been designed to protect critical transmission components and help prolong component life. Part of this range consists of our premium Castrol Transmax fluids which are formulated with Smooth Drive Technology™ providing smoother gear changes for longer and delivering a more relaxing drive.
Always consult your car’s handbook to make sure you find the correct fluid for your transmission.
