Why choose D-Matic CVT Fluid

Duckhams D-Matic CVT Fluid is a fully synthetic Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT) fluid suitable for use in most major Japanese passenger cars fitted with push-belt or chain-type CVT gearboxes. Formulated with a balanced additive system that provides high steel-on-steel friction coefficients and excellent paper clutch friction durability and torque capacity. It gives a high level of protection and is suitable for most types of passenger car CVT fluid service-fill applications. D-Matic CVT Fluid is for CVT gearboxes only. Although part of the D-Matic transmission fluid range, it is not a conventional automatic transmission fluid (ATF) and must not be used in conventional automatic transmissions or dual-clutch transmissions. Not suitable for conventional automatic transmissions, dual-clutch transmissions or hybrid CVT transmissions. Always refer to your handbook to ensure you are selecting the correct lubricant.

  • High steel-on-steel friction coefficient and paper friction durability ensure excellent torque capacity and prevent belt slippage, minimising wear and protecting the transmission system.
  • High oxidative stability synthetic base oils, and shear stable viscosity modifiers, preserve the viscosity, maintaining transmission system performance throughout long service intervals.
  • Excellent wet clutch performance delivers smooth shifting and ensures anti-shudder durability, providing smooth transmission throughout the oil drain interval.
  • Excellent anti-foam characteristics ensure consistent film strength between components, ensuring good lubrication, minimising wear and extending component life.
  • Good low-temperature performance makes the fluid suitable for a wide operating temperature range, providing suitable protection even during low ambient temperature starts.
