i think dexron III is the same thing. Most trans fluid I see are dexron III/mercon V labeled. Mobil 1 ATF is great stuff, I run it and the trans loves it (t45) i can't see how the 3650 is that much different

The manual is very adament about only using Mercon V and that Dexcron/Mercon II and III are NOT compatible..

yup whatever you would prefer. I think the mobil 1 is designed to work with both applications.
