This is a comprehensive kit put together by Adam that includes everything you need to get the job done, including the updated spec of fluid provided by Aisin. This includes the fluid and gaskets you need as well as seals & plugs that otherwise may be forgotten. Aisin is the manufacturer of the TG-81SC and TF-80SC transmissions, so you know you’re using the highest quality fluid and components in your Volvo when you purchase this particular kit.

Aisin Type WS fluid is the only approved oil for Aisin TG81SC transmissions. None of the other fluids available on the market have been evaluated by Volvo to meet the requirements of these specific transmissions regarding shift quality, slipping lock-up functionality and transmission durability.

Final fluid level should be set while the transmission temperature is warm (50-60C) with engine running on a level surface. An electronic TCM reset is highly recommended after the oil change, especially if it has been a while since the last service.

We recommend replacing or changing the fluid in your Volvos automatic transmission roughly every 30,000 miles. If you are unsure of when the last time your Volvo has had its fluid changed – it’s a good idea to go ahead and change it for peace of mind. It is also a good idea to change the fluid if you are experiencing and slipping or hard and overly aggressive shifting from the transmission.
