Preferred Customer Baxter (Dale) Rogers of Heyworth, Ill., saved himself the cost of a new transmission by using AMSOIL Synthetic Automatic Transmission Fluid.

Rogers owns a 2004 Saturn* Vue* that sat idle for several months last year. When he began driving it again, he noticed a fluctuation in the rpm at lower speeds.

He took the vehicle to a dealership, where he was told he needed a new transmission. “The cost would have been around $2,800,” Rogers said. “I went for a second opinion at a transmission shop, and they told me the same thing, except I also needed a torque converter, which would be an additional $500 to $800.”

A friend who does Rogers’ automotive work offered a third option: change the fluid. The Vue has a Honda* transmission. The mechanic checked with a Honda representative, who recommended Honda transmission fluid or AMSOIL automatic transmission fluid, Rogers said.

“I told my friend I would get the fluid because I am an AMSOIL Preferred Customer. I bought AMSOIL Synthetic Multi-Vehicle Transmission Fluid and he installed it,” Rogers said. “I have saved so much money using AMSOIL products; I am overwhelmed.”

Trouble-Free Performance

“The Vue now has more than 124,000 miles (199,600 km) and is running fine,” Rogers said. “AMSOIL ATF saved the day and saved me more than $2,700. AMSOIL products are great. I’m a happy customer and enjoy reading AMSOIL Magazine to keep up-to-date on AMSOIL products and the company.”

Rogers installed AMSOIL lubricants in his other vehicles, as well.

“I’ve been a Preferred Customer for about two years now, and I have three of my vehicles using AMSOIL products,” he said. “They run so much better and cooler than I could have believed.”

In addition to the Saturn Vue, Rogers owns a 2010 Dodge* Caravan* and a motorhome. He uses AMSOIL synthetic motor oil along with AMSOIL synthetic transmission fluid in those vehicles.

“When I go to Texas for the winter in my motorhome, and flat-tow my Vue, I have no worry about the proper lubrication of my engines.”
