This past week Champion announced a professional-grade GlobalTrans™ Full Synthetic ATF for multi-vehicle (MV) automatic transmissions. The fluid has been designed not only to lubricate moving parts but also provide the hydraulic pressure, friction and cooling to make transmissions work more efficiently in diesel and gasoline applications.
Champion Multi-Vehicle ATF meets the requirements of O.E.M. diesel and gasoline automatic transmissions and helps with various functions including gear lubrication, torque converter operation, valve body operation, clutch friction operation, brake band friction and transmission cooling.
Generally, ATF is made of a thin consistency and is clear with a red hue, though some automatic transmission fluids are now blue/green, purple or even amber, depending on the manufacturer. This makes it easier to differentiate it from motor oil and other fluids in your vehicle as well as to identify the source when you spot a leak.
Over time, ATF will break down and become contaminated with particles or debris. If your ATF level is low or the fluid has started to break down, you'll notice a decrease in performance and possibly overheating. Transmission overheating is typically the result of a leak resulting in low fluid, or contaminated fluid due to a lack of regular fluid maintenance.
These issues might cause the transmission to slip, and while it won't typically cause the vehicle to stall, it will cause the engine to rev higher than normal or feel as though you have no power. When fluid levels are low, this can produce permanent damage to your vehicle's transmission, leading to costly repairs of even replacement.
Champion GlobalTrans™ Full Synthetic Multi-Vehicle ATF Fluid is proven in field test to prevent early operational lubricant breakdown and have consistent top-tier performance in many world-wide and different types of O.E.M. diesel and gasoline automatic transmissions.
Champion's GlobalTrans™ MV ATF delivers superior performance in low-temperature flow, wear protection, frictional stability and resistance to thermal breakdown. It is made with 100% synthetic base fluid chosen for superior resistance to oxidation and viscosity change. It maintains a highly sheer stable cold flow viscosity for exceptional resistance to problematic viscosity change over thousands of miles or hundreds of hours.
Champion's synergistic wear and seal protection chemistry is preferred by original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and found in premium factory first-fill fluids. It is optimized with friction-control additive technology that not only prevents slip and shudder, but also provides smooth operational shifting, supporting its claim to be more durable than many competing brands.
GlobalTrans™, part #4357, is compatible with contemporary diesel and gas transmission seal materials and other automatic transmission fluids. Follow OEM recommendations regarding extended drain intervals.

Modern ATF consists of a base oil plus an additive package containing a wide variety of chemical compounds intended to provide the required properties of a particular ATF specification. Most ATFs contain some combination of additives that improve lubricating qualities,[2][3][4] such as anti-wear additives, rust and corrosion inhibitors, detergents, dispersants and surfactants (which protect and clean metal surfaces); kinematic viscosity and viscosity index improvers and modifiers, seal swell additives and agents (which extend the rotational speed range and temperature range of the additives' application); anti-foam additives and anti-oxidation compounds to inhibit oxidation.
