Owners of Proton vehicles sporting automatic transmissions can now have optimum performance for their torque-converter equipped gearbox with the specially-formulated ATF-XP3 Automatic Transmission Fluid that was jointly developed by Proton and Petronas for use in Proton vehicles.
Having been developed specifically, the ATF-XP3 matches Proton's PES-1133 standard and is recommended for use in automatic transmissions that Dexron fluid is unsuitable for. Furthermore, it can be used on transmissions that require ATF-9 fluid.
“This exercise is part of our efforts to continuously improve customer satisfaction, and, we also see this collaboration as means to elevate Malaysian brands. In the future, customers can also look forward to more products to come from this collaboration, including a jointly-developed engine oil,” said Mohamad Shukor Ibrahim, Proton Edar Chief Executive Officer, in reference to the collaboration agreement penned between the two giants in 2010.
The ATF-XP3 is suitable to be used in the following Proton models that are fitted with automatic transmissions, Saga (1985-2007); New Saga (BLM); Iswara; Wira and Satria (1993-2008); Waja (2000, Campro and CPS); Gen2 (Campro and CPS); Satria Neo (Campro and CPS); Persona and Persona Elegance; and Exora (CPS). It is however not recommended for the Perdana, Waja 1.8 and Savvy as well as the Inspira due to different transmission technology requirements.
ATF-XP3 is now available nationwide and will be the recommended transmission fluid at all authorized Proton service centers from now onwards. A one-liter bottle will retail for RM29.96 in Peninsular Malaysia while our East countrymen will get it at RM30.46.
