There have been, at times, much discussion about Dexron VI. Is it a synthetic, synthetic blend or what?
Thanks for all the great info. you have given.
Charlie D.,
DEXRON-VI is a mix of Group II and Group III base oils plus additives. A true synthetic will contain Group IV base oils which are called PAO (polyalphaolefins). TranSynd and the other TES-295 fluids all contain PAO only. Base oils are divided into these groups based on sulfur content, viscosity index, and amount of saturates.
To learn more about Base Oil Groups, go to API.org (American Petroleum Institute).
