Banana Man 0 Posted January 9, 2005 Shouldn't think so I ve only just changed over to using the vw fluid, before that I always ran ATF red for 3 1/2 years without any troubles at all!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Henny 0 Posted January 10, 2005 the red ATF stuff can cause problems due to it being too thick and therefor damaging the internal seals due to overpressuring the system... IIRC it also can eat the seals as they're not designed for that fluid... :| Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
