Meets further specifications, allowing it to cover an even wider range of vehicles. Usage according to the prescribed specifications from the unit or vehicle manufacturer."
Sounds like you are all set! Let us know how it goes.

As a side note, can you imagine how stunned a typical Jeep or Chrysler owner must be when they show up for an ATF fluid flush and the dealer quotes them something like $1500 - $2000 CAD for the job?! Oh man, that must take some explaining! ($78/liter for ATF is just freakin' highway robbery. That's what pushed me to try a local indy that has a very good reputation. Happy I did and it saved me a bundle!)
