what type of ATF fluid to use

All:

Need to top off the ATF fluid in my 1987 928 getting a bunch of differing recommendations.

So which is the correct ATF fluid to use.

Understand the wrong fluid will ruin the seals

Thanks as always

Provenceman

The reservior cap says Dexron 2. I use Castrol mult vehicle. It satisfies the need for Dexron. Next time I'm going to use whatever Mercedes uses for Dexron.
DON'T put import car trans fluid in it.

Castrol Dexron 111 HUMMMM
Here's the link
Which ATF to use now? - Rennlist Discussion Forums

Mobil 1 ATF >>> Mobil 1 Synthetic ATF that sounds good to me for a good condition Auto Trans
But if it has a bunch of miles humm not necessary
Just a Dexron type is fine and just change it once a year > only about 8 QT's
