Default Auto Trans fluid and filter, what manufacturer?

I need to change out my Tip's fluid, what brand of fluid should I use? RockAuto has Pentosin at about $200 for 20 liters.

Filter kit, filter and gasket, they have an AC Delco, how's that?

You don't need 20 liters, more like 5. If your doing it yourself, here's Pelican's DIY tech article. https://www.pelicanparts.com/techart...sion_Fluid.htm. It covers Mk1 & 2. The Mk2 fill procedure requires a way to connect to the fill fitting with a pressurized source. I used Fuchs Titan 3335 fluid, which works fine.

I used Pentosin ATF-1 and ended up using just under 6 liters. The 5 liter jug was not quite enough and I had to run out and get one more liter. I can't remember where I ordered the filter from. Sunset parts or autohausAZ probably.
