What fluids do you use?

[NYmagicstk]

I'm doing a radiator fluid, tranny oil, and engine oil change later. I usually use 10w30 for the engine, and 50/50 coolant/water. What type of tranny fluid should I use, and is the type of engine oil I use good for my car? What does everyone else put in their cars?

MOBIL 1 for almost 6 years every 2500-3000 miles.

1 use mobile 1 10w-30, the tranny fluid i had changed at jiffy lube and it helped tremendously. I would only rec. having mitsu do the coolant b/c they have some kind of magic special mitsu fluid I was told the only thing to use with your cooling sys b/c chemically others are "wrong".

Whoa! They must love you at the dealership!!! "Magic" special fluid eh? Special sauce maybe....haha.

I use Mobil 1 5w30 motor oil. I'm going to be switching to the Mobil 1 Extended Performance all synthetic today when I change my oil

IM using royal purple for my engine oil, tranny fluid w/ some BG syncroshift, and Royal Purple Ice for the radiator..

I had went a lil over my budget at pepboys this morning, so I bought Exxon 10w30 oil, and Prestone 50/50 mix. I'll save the tranny flush for another weekend.
I also started installing my visor tv's, but that's another topic.

I use Valvoline Syntetic 20-50 High RPM for my engine since it has 139000 miles i also add Lucas Syntetic oil treatment and Prestone 50-50 for the coolant

[DryBear]

For oil, Ive used Royal Purple, Mobil 1 Synthetic+Lucas Synthetic Oil Treatment, and Redline - so far the butt dyno seems to favor the Mobil 1 + Lucas, plus I can get the Mobil 1 pretty cheap.

For the Tranny I use Mobil 1+Lucas Tranny Fix and no problems whatsoever.

For cooling I just use Prestone+water

Case of Mobile 1 is 20 bucks at any Costco, nationwide.

Fuck Costco and there silly "you need to be a member to shop here" rules. My mother is a member isn't that enough!? Fucking ingreats!! They need to have a Wholesale Walmart (not stupid Sam's Club), where you can buy Cases of useless shit instead of having to buy your useless shit seperately. ( I'm not hating on Walmart... when I was in the Marine Corps, I practically lived there...)
