TES-295 Spec fluid question

[BADLUK007]

So, I goofed up and just read the title of the item I purchased from an eBay dealer, and really it's my fault. I usually over analyze everything and this just slipped through the cracks somehow, the title is a bit misleading. So, I bought a 1 gallon jug of Castrol transynd and this 5 gallon bucket of puresynd hd atf to do a few drain and fills on my lml. I'm faced with a dilemma on if I should eat the original cost of shipping and the cost of return shipping to new York and purchase another 5 gallons of transynd or use the product I've attached pictures below. It's said to meet the standard but, I'll take advice from a pro any day. My gut tells me to eat the cost of returning it and purchase castol. Any advice is appreciated. I can't find any information on the product, good or bad. Thanks in advance.

Although that particular brand doesn't show up on the "official approved lubricant list" the fluid you've purchased is guaranteed to the TES-295 spec and standard, so it should be totally acceptable to use...I'm pretty sure I'd use it in this scenario...but I'm not, its your call, I personally see no issue, but I'm not smart...hopefully someone like Mike L will chime in tomorrow:thumb:

I appreciate the link and solid answer. I sort of feel like "Ya screw it, use it!" then my maintenance OCD kicks in and I don't really have confidence due to no real world info. Thanks for the reply.

Good enough for me, thanks Mike
