Purpose and Specifications

RAVENOL ATF LVS 4L is a synthetic automatic transmission fluid designed for smooth shifting and long-lasting protection in modern vehicles. This low-viscosity oil flows easily at cold starts down to -51°C, preventing sluggish performance in winter, while staying stable up to 220°C flash point for hot towing or heavy loads.

It matches specs like BMW ATF 3+, Honda ATF DW-1, Toyota ATF T-WS, VW TL 525 33, ZF LifeguardFluid 6/8/9, covering BMW, Mercedes, Honda, Toyota, VW, and ZF 6-9 speed automatics. Benefits include reduced wear, no foaming, and seal-friendly formula for leak-free operation.

When to Use / Replace?

• Use in automatic transmissions (not CVT) for cars and trucks needing low-viscosity ATF, like BMW 5 Series or Mercedes C-Class from 2001-2026.
• Replace every 60,000-100,000 km or 4-5 years under normal driving; sooner at 40,000 km for severe conditions like towing or city stop-go.
• Shelf life: 5 years sealed; check dipstick for dark color or burnt smell to confirm need.

FAQ

Can I mix it with older ATF?
Better to drain and refill fully; partial changes work but full flush maximizes protection.

What if my car spec isn't listed?
Check your owner's manual; this covers most Asian/European automatics post-2005.
