VERSATRANS® ULV ATF

FULL-SYNTHETIC, ULTRA-LOW VISCOSITY AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION FLUID; FORD MERCON ULV APPROVED

Phillips 66® VersaTrans® ULV ATF is a full-synthetic, ultra-low viscosity transmission fluid approved for passenger cars and light-duty trucks requiring Ford MERCON® ULV fluid.

VersaTrans ULV ATF is engineered to deliver long service life and consistent shift performance throughout the fluid's lifespan. It excels under extreme operating conditions and meets the demands of many modern transmissions, including 10-speed models. The fluid provides excellent anti-shudder performance and enhanced low-temperature properties, ensuring smooth shifting in cold weather. Its ultra-low viscosity formulation also improves fuel economy compared to higher-viscosity fluids.

VersaTrans ULV ATF is recommended for use in many newer Ford and GM vehicles where MERCON ULV or equivalent fluids are specified.

This fluid is not suitable for dual-clutch transmissions (DCTs), belt- or chain-driven continuously variable transmissions (CVTs), or older transmissions requiring higher-viscosity fluids. Always consult the owner's manual for the correct fluid recommendation.
