Really appreciate it, JCL. I'm going to read it very soon, and post some more info later on. Thanks for the suggestion.

Royal Purple publish a cross reference that says that fluid meets BMW LA2634 and LT71141 specs, and GM specs equivalent to DEXRON, DEXRON-II, DEXRON-IID, DEXRON-IIIG, and DEXRON-IIIH. Now you need to crawl under your vehicle and read the label on your pan.
