Hi Friends,

Look in the General Information chapter. It says Dexron.  Might be in the Owners Manual also.

Any specific Dexron?

From the factory service manual:

From the owner's manual:

At least they are consistent.

As far as type Dexron: https://www.yotatech.com/forums/f2/dexron-ii-iii-32776/

You could go with aftermarket.  The Redline guys seems to know what they're doing.  Use their vehicle finder tool.  Looks like they have one.  I'd trust them, their other products work well.

Thanks all. I think Dexron III for this time make sense. I have used Dexron III-H successfully in a different car so will go with this.
