Dextron 3 Auto Tranny Fluid

Is Dextron 3/Mercon a good automatic tranny fluid for my 2k1 Auto Maxima? Thanks.

I have converted 2 automatics to AMSOIL Synthetic ATF with marvelous results. If it were my car I switch to synthetic w/o a second thought. Tranny is quieter, smoother and shifts smooother.

Whatever you put in there, make sure it Dexron III or equivalent.
