Default Valvoline MaxLife Full Synthetic....???

Can I use this oil for the tranny on a 2000 A8?

Specs in the back say its compatible....

Also, Can It be mixed with whatever is inside the torque converter?

I am including a couple of pictures of the oil in mention...

Also, what is the capacity?

THANKS!!!!!

It is fine as long as it meets ESSO LT 71141 compatability, per ZF's standards. The total fill is about 12 quarts if it's been totally drained. It will mix fine w/ what's already there.

Yes you're good. Several BMW models also had the 5hp24 and carried the same fluid req's.
