TKX/TKO OIl
Servicing your car’s transmission is an integral part of routine car maintenance, but even more crucial is making sure you use the right kind of oil and fluids.
If you have a TREMEC TKX or TKO transmission, there are only a few oils or fluids recommended for use.

Remember that you should always fill your TREMEC TKX transmission with oil through the fill plug on the passenger side of the transmission.
When the oil approaches the fill plug hole, sufficient oil has been added.
TREMEC Transmissions mentions 2.64 Quarts as an approximate amount of oil for these transmissions to contain.
