Re: nv3550 questions
Last I checked it was something like $12/qt at dealer, that's why I was
looking around for it. Got into a snipping match with D-C because the
factory service manual and owner's manual says do not use anything but the
dealer stuff, but if there is no aftermarket equivalent they are supposed to
provide it for free. At the time the Pennzoil wasn't available.

Re: nv3550 questions
Personally the Pennzoil® Synchromesh stuff says,
a.. Suitable for use in Chrysler transaxles and transmissions requiring Part
No. 4874464
It does not sat it meets Chrysler Part No. 4874464 the difference is the
Chrysler Part No. 4874464 is synthetic and Pennzoil® Synchromesh is not.
Suitable is not good enough for me but, that is just me.

Re: nv3550 questions
So is the Chrysler stuff 'really' synthetic or is it just one of those
fake labels they went to court to be able to put on normal refined dino
oil to jack the price way up?
Maybe Pennzoil is just being honest with their label and price?

Re: nv3550 questions
So is the Chrysler stuff 'really' synthetic or is it just one of those

Maybe Pennzoil is just being honest with their label and price?
