PQIA Updates its Evaluation of Valvoline MAXLIFE ATF

 

PQIA initially issued an Advisory on MAXLIFE ATF based on the fact the product implied compliance with the MerconŽ specification but did not meet the MerconŽ viscosity requirement.  

 

Valvoline has since contacted PQIA and provided a valid technical explanation as to why MAXLIFE ATF would provide acceptable performance in MerconŽ applications. Based on this explanation, PQIA no longer believes an Advisory is necessary and has updated its evaluation of this product.
