Millers Millermatic SP 3 WS.
https://www.opieoils.co.uk/p-60226-millers-oils-millermatic-atf-sp-iii-ws.aspx
Currently on offer with 10% off but speak to Matt and tell him you are a member of this site and he will give another 5% off normally, then tell him you are a first time customer on a recommendation and he will normally work a little more off.
To do a full change you need 2 X 5 litre containers of it. |

Fantastic thank you I've seen so many others saying just use this one or that one but I seem to remember seeing one of the other members on here saying the oil runs very hot and to use specific one and so didn't want to risk it.
Thanks again |

Correct, it does run hot and it is the heat which kills the ATF and accelerates its breakdown, it is actually meeting the requirement of SP +4 which is the latest specification and it is also backwards compatible which means it can be used in older Shogun/Pajero transmissions using and requiring Dia Queen SP II and many changed their older SP II ATF for the newer SP III specification ATF as a useful ATF upgrade and the feedback was that it lasted much longer, particularly for those off roading regularly and a site member called Venn (or Mr Venn as I call him) found it much improved as he off roaded a lot and shot a lot of video of his excursions. |

I've ordered all the bits from MitzyBitz and I've been assured that the ATF is the hi spec one for my vehicle. Not bad £66 for the lot |

Check the specifications and ensure it meets SP III before using it, many people in retail make recommendations including many claimed experts in Mitsubishis, and just satisfy yourself it is correct.
If you post the make and type of ATF provided I can run a check on it for you. |
