1988 Volvo 245DL suggest transmission oil
Hello,
I own 1988 Volvo 245DL with AW70 transmission.
I've been using before Mobil 1 ATF Synthetic Fluid.
About to do full transmission flush and add additives.
Can someone suggest specific brands and types please?

I've been using Castrol Transmax Import (formerly Multi-Import) ATF, which is specified for late model Toyotas and such. The AW70 is a Toyota transmission, same as used on a wide range of RWD toyotas in the mid 80s to mid 90s, including a lot 2x4 pickups, turbo supras, etc. spec sheet: http://msdspds.castrol.com/bpglis/FusionPDS.nsf/Files/064FD5179C8D0FFD80257AA90053687A/$File/Castrol%20Transmax%20Import%20MV%20_03521_.pdf
its also widely available.
But, really, any decent brand name Dex/Merc III should be fine. I don't use additives, IMHO, they are snake oil.

I will use additives probably since a lot of other people saying they help to clean. Looking at Lucas transmission additive. If you remember we talked in different thread about my OD transmission problem.
