Hi Charlie, yesterday I was in Walmart getting some oil. I was looking at the ATF and the Walmart Brand has a DEX VI. Priced the same as Merc V and more money than their base product @ $3.49 or so. Does that mean that walmart Dex vI can be used in the X5? That doesn't mean I will but. $4.29 is better than $9.00 for M1. What do you all think?
I'm also going to ask this over at bitog.
