I also think the "fill-for-life" scheme was based off the assumption that a large percentage of people never changed their fluid anyway so they decided to put in quality "long-life" fluid and no longer considered transmission fluid changes a design constraint. Not an ideal situation obviously but a compromise.

The old gl4 fluid was 8862472 and was usually red, the new 19351859 that replaced is usually amber. I think the color depended on who manufactured it bc I have seen both. If anyone plans on needing any in the future you better get it on order, its no longer a stocked item and is direct ship only (shipped from manufacturer, takes between 3days to two weeks) . I expect it will go full discontinue within a year or two. ATM I get it for 13 dollars a quart, not sure what reg price is.

Not really, they don't give a manufacturer specification code like engine oil in si or our parts catalog breakdown. All I can get is these descriptions. I have two bottles of the new stuff on order right now for someone so when it comes in ill see if there is something on the label but i don't remember there being anything on the others i have gotten

Sorry to drag up an old thread, but I'm on deployment and access is slow and limited.
Anyone know anything about this https://genuinesaab.com/catalog/prod...products_id=89
Here is anpther link to one on amazon. Saab product that was used int the turbo 9-3 should be fine for the Cobalt I would assume, if you can't find the ACDelco products?
