CRP Automotive offers new Pentosin automatic transmission fluids

CRP Automotive offers two new Pentosin Automatic Transmission Fluids (ATFs) for Mercedes-Benz, Ford, GM and more. Pentosin ATF 134 FE Plus is made for Mercedes-Benz models from 2017 to today that feature a 9-G Tronic transmission, while Pentosin ATF 64 fluid is a fully-synthetic fluid for Ford and GM applications.

Pentosin ATF 134 FE Plus is a low-viscosity fluid that the company says was specially developed to further optimize fuel economy and gearbox efficiency on the latest generation of Mercedes Benz nine-speed transmissions. The fluid also features low oil consumption and an optimized friction coefficient stability, allowing for extended oil change intervals, CRP Automotive says. The low-viscosity formulation of ATF 134 FE Plus also delivers good low-temperature properties. Application coverage exceeds 1.4 million VIO across the United States and Canada.

Approved for GM (DEXRON-VI), Ford (MERCON LV), and JASO 1-A-LV vehicles, Pentosin ATF 64 features specially formulated additive technology to provide exceptional anti-shudder performance that the company says improves the driving experience. Additional benefits include strong friction control, shear stability and wear protection, the company adds.

“We’ve tested our Pentosin ATF 64 fluid in a range of passenger vehicles with nearly one million kilometers driven to ensure it can stand up to the rigors of real-world driving conditions,” notes Mark Malone, director of the Pentosin brand for North America. “This highly-specialized fluid provides excellent application coverage for over 175 million VIO in the U.S. and Canada.”

CRP Automotive offers both Pentosin ATF 134 FE and Pentosin ATF 64 in 1- and 5-liter packaging.
