Is this equivalent to any particular Dexron specification? Like Dexron III, IV, V, or VI? My 2000 Toyota Camry calls for Dexron III.

Why should i select this product over valv. maxlife for honda or toyota ? even valvoline recommends their maxlife over this every time.

You should select this product if you have an older transmission that calls for Dexron II or III, like my 1999 Toyota A540E does. Valvoline's current Maxlife ATF is Dexron VI which GM claims is "backward compatible" with II/III but, at least in the specific case of Maxlife, is actually thinner than a real II/III fluid which can cause shifting issues. You might also notice that the instructions of some II/III-only products specifically warn against using them in transmissions that require VI. Having said that, a lot of people use Maxlife in II/III transmissions without issue. But if you happen to have a picky transmission that is very viscosity-sensitive, and changing to Maxlife causes problems for you, this might be a worth a try.

So is this better than the Castrol TransMax IMV? Full synthetic vs blend, correct??

The key answer for Fully Synthetic vs Blend is specifications for your vehicle. Your vehicle seals might not take well aggressive fully synthetic fluid. Rule is this : if you put full synthetic You MUST stick with it no change for mineral or blend it would cause leaks. FLUSH if tranny isn't broken is recommended, you cannot damage transmission by flush if its done correctly. Flush actually can help. You change 100% of fluid volume vs 30-40%. If recommended change the filter and clean.

Will this work on Subaru Forrester

Check your owners manual.Its a great product and works on most import and domestic cars.I have been using this for my 97 acura and 2010 Hyundai. My acura has 278k and the Hyundai has 110k.Hope that helps.
