If the 2000 trany is anything like the 06 trany its mercon sp but don't hold me to that you might want a tech to take this one.I would'nt want to steer you wrong.any techs want this one

cmon techs what will not kill my tranny. lol. thanks a ton guys. i just thought synthetic or something would be better.

Nope don't use mercon sp only for the torque shift 2003 to date. Use any mercon or mercon v. I would use mobile I or amsoil both excellent synthetics.

if you want to go synthetic i would go Redline or Amsoil....and synthetics do tend to run a little cooler. They also dont "break down" like conventional oil, although dont mistake that for meaning you never have to service it. The additive package in it does get used up so just because it doesnt lose lubricity doesnt mean it doesnt need servicing.....

If you want to run conventional just run Merc V
