Castrol TRANSMAX Z

High quality full synthetic automatic transmission fluid formulated to provide ultimate wear protection and performance except where Dexron VI type fluids are specified.

Application

Recommended for buses, coaches and commercial vehicles operating under heavy loads or extreme conditions wherever General Motors type fluids are recommended.

Features & benefits

• Excellent resistance to oxidation thus assisting in prolonging the life of the lubricant.
• Extended oil drain potential resulting in lower operating costs.
• Enhanced protection against deposits to extend transmission life.
• Temperature reduction in severe conditions improves transmission and oil service life, and assists in reducing fuel consumption and emissions.
• Optimised frictional characteristics to provide smoother gear changes and better protection against wear.
• Outstanding cold flow properties materially assisting in reducing wear at start-up.
