I switched from [...] super tech Dex III to Valvoline MaxLife Dex/Merc in all 3 of my GM vehicles (4t40e, 4t45e, 4L60e transmissions, respectively). The shifts are quicker, arent as 'soft' anymore (mostly thanks to GM's torque management), and Ive found the fluid to stay in great condition even after 50,000 miles. The trans in my Envoy runs 15f degrees cooler with the Valvoline Maxlife Dex/Merc in it. I bought the fluid on the website here and used a coupon code, then picked it up at the store - turned out to be cheaper than anywhere else around.
