Mixing transmission fluid with Original Fluid
Hi,


I'm fairly new to the forums and to the mini world, I will be changing the auto transmission fluid in my mini,


This fluid is recommended on this forums but I have a questions, since I'm only replacing +/-3 quarts. (removing the plug and filling from the top)


Is it ok to mix this new full synthetic fluid with the original oem fluid?

Thanks

I wouldn’t put Redline MTL in a
MINI automatic transmission.

The Eneos ECO-ATF in the link should be
ok, but I would do a full change.

Its ok to mix new and old. Sure the more the better, but some is better than none!
