I'm sure the after-market fluids are good. Just be aware of any impact it may have on your ability to get the SST replaced under warranty, should it have a problem.

It shouldn't impact anything. I spoke with my dealer about fluids, and they don't even use the stock stuff (in his personal car). They don't use SSP, either.

Diaqueen SSTF is green and SSP is gold! Very obvious difference. So qoing from green to gold or green to red is just less striking of a difference, but a difference nevertheless.

Only when fresh. After the fluid is ran through the car for 10K miles the SSTF and Pro Gold are pretty similar, having a light golden sheen on the dark fluid. Its the red that looks REALLY different. Most of them cant tell dirty w/yellow from dirty w/green

Also, that video that was posted about the SST tranny, had the high capacity pan which looks pretty sweet. Comes with a dip stick too! I'll be going to SSP gold in another 10-15000 kms.
