Diaqueen ATF-J2 Aftermarket Fluid
AMSOIL just recently upgraded the specifications on their ATF fluids.
You will find that the Signature Series Fuel-Efficient Synthetic Automatic Transmission Fluid (ATL) in the blue bottle now sports the Mitsubishi ATF-J2 specification.
I give more detail about the update here:
http://amsoil.nesser.org/2013/04/ams...pecifications/
The application guide on AMSOIL's website hasn't been updated yet but the transmission product specifications have been.
FYI: AMSOIL does not currently have an ATF for CVT transmissions.
I'm excited for a new aftermarket fluid option. I've got a 2L of DiaQueen J2 from the dealership to use up and then I'll be using ATL going forward.

Doesn't exist yet but I'd suggest contacting AMSOIL technical services to ask for it. The Tech Services people are really helpful, will take a few days to reply though.
They track those requests for future fluid considerations. The more people that ask for a specification the more likely it will be researched and tested.

Got a reply from Amsoil today.
"At this time, AMSOIL does not offer an ATF fluid meeting Diaqueen ATF-J3 specifications. Depending on the physical and frictional characteristics differ from our current automatic transmission fluids we offer, we may offer something in the future. If this fluid specification is a completely different oil than any previous transmission fluids offered by Mitsubishi, it may require a completely different formulation, and may not be available."
Not very hopeful, I'd say.

So the J2 is what the outlander V6 (6AT) uses right?
I don't understand why these transmission requires diaqueen fluids, I thought similar transmission are used in toyota and nissans
What is the price for the Amsoil ATL (qt)?

You'd have to ask Mitsubishi exactly why they use DiaQueen fluids. Don't hold your breath waiting for an answer.
