Motul ATF VI 1L Dexron VI Automatic Transmission Fluid 105774
Motul ATF VI 1L - Dexron VI Automatic Transmission Fluid (105774)
Motul ATF VI is a low-viscosity, synthetic-technology ATF formulated for modern automatic transmissions (including electronically controlled units) with or without a lock-up clutch, where a DEXRON VI-type fluid is specified. Always confirm the exact fluid requirement in the vehicle handbook and by VIN where applicable.
Suitable Applications
- Automatic transmissions requiring a DEXRON VI-type ATF
- Older automatic transmissions and hydraulic systems where DEXRON III H or DEXRON II D is required
- Transfer cases and power steering systems where the specified fluid matches this product’s OEM performance references
ZF 8-Speed (ZF8 / 8HP) Compatibility Notes
- Motul lists ZF Lifeguard 8 (and TE-ML 11) under OEM performance references for ATF VI. Verify the exact service-fill requirement for your specific ZF 8HP variant and vehicle OEM part number before use.
- ZF’s TE-ML 11 document indicates 8HP/9HP families use specially developed ATF oils and that only released/approved oils should be used for oil changes. Confirm the required ZF/OEM fluid spec by VIN and transmission code prior to filling.
Key OEM Performance References (Examples)
Motul’s technical data sheet lists a wide set of OEM references; common ones include:
- GM DEXRON VI (and legacy GM DEXRON II D / III H where specified)
- Ford MERCON LV / MERCON ULV
