Moving from Dexron 3 to 3309 oil in my Transmission

Hello guys, I have been using the Dexron 3 in my 2002 volvo s60 NA with 140,000 on the clock for about 4 months.

Re: Excess Gas consumption

Finally went on a 300 miles trip and fuel consumption seems great. I guess the car needed a long run. At 280 miles, fuel guage was a point below halt tank mark.

Re: Excess Gas consumption

I currently run 40 psi. Over here we do not have Techron. What we have is Total and I have actually used the fuel Injector cleaner. Will just wait and monitor things during my 490km road trip next week. Thanks guys

Re: Excess Gas consumption

Thanks for the response Oragex. So the for the parts I have replaced, They are all OEM original parts. I don't notice dragging as the car coasts freely but I will have that checked.

Re: Excess Gas consumption

Thanks for the response guys. I have a 300 miles trip on the 17th of this month. That should give me time to really check the MPG and would also be the first time driving over 30 miles in a single trip since I purchased the car.

Hi June.
I appreciate your response. Just to be clear, does this mean driving without premium gas and getting about 95 miles out of a half filled tank is OK?
