Hi,

 

Need 10L for my ATF flushing - Riverview charges $12.50 / quart for their Mitsubishi DIAQUEEN ATF. Any suggestions?

 

Royal Purple's going for like $17.50. Expensive...

 

thanks!

I think Mit. and Hyundai uses the same ATF. I got mine from this place called Song Yi @ Veersamy Road. Per litre is less then S$10.00 if i am not wrong.

 

If you are interested, maybe you could PM me and I will go find the addy for you.

 

On an additional note, the last time when I flushed my Matrix ATF, it costs around less then S$100.00 at CAS. Perhaps if you are keen, check out with them.

 

I did mine at Khang Auto @ Sin Ming.

Thanks all for your prompt and helpful response!

 

Forgot to mention that my ride is Tuscani 2.0A.

 

Elantrahatch: Is yours a drain & top-up or a full flush (which uses 10L or so of ATF)? When i checked with CAS they only use mineral, not synthetic ATF.

U cannot use RP as it's Dexron III. Not same as Diaqueen hor.

 

BTW my RP ATF cost abt $10/qt only.

 

Where u buy for $17.50/Qt?????

Got my SP3 from Min Ghee at $28 for 4L. That works out to $7 per 1L. Comes in 4L container, might want to check with them if they sell by the L instead.

I was quoted $17.50 for RP ATF at Earthworm (Dawson Place Shopping Ctr). Got my RP 5W30 engine oil at $12.90/l there.

 

I called Song Yi - its $25 for 4L of Hyundai SPIII ATF. Another $35 for ATF filter + gasket.

 

I assume its mineral and not the fully synthetic type...

As far as I know, ALL RP engine oil & ATF is fully synthetic.

 

I used to get my RP from the importer, Pacific Petroleun, Mr. Brown is the boss.

 

But his prices keep going up since a couple of years back & I found a kaki in here who can also supply at a better price. U can also try MX Trdg as I see them mentioned several times as RP supplier.

 

I got a couple of bottles of RP ATF left but wil change to the Toyota ATF for my next flush cos their price is better.

 

I am moving away from RP cos their prices keep rising. Maybe cos they getting too popular? [:/]

 

But if u using Diaqueen then u CANNOT use RP ATF anyway cos it's Dexron III.

 

Last time my Hyundai was using Dexron ATF so I cud use RP. [thumbsup]

SPIII is specified by MMC to be a synthetic blend on paper. If they list it as SPIII it must follow the minimum requirements of SPIII by MMC. Therefore, there is no such thing as "mineral SPIII".
