Mitsubishi's own SP-III automatic transmission fluid, sold by the quart under the number above. This is the one place on a Gen 3 where using "a good ATF" instead of the specified one is a genuinely expensive mistake: the specialist who sells it says they have seen more than one Gen 3 transmission ruined by non-OEM fluid, and says it plainly enough that it is worth repeating. No quantity per vehicle is recorded here on purpose — the fill and the drain-and-refill amounts are different figures and both live on the cited page, so read them there rather than trusting a memory of them. Some brands now sell an SP-IV described as backwards compatible; the seller is not making that jump, and neither is this page. The number, the fitment and the count come from the Montero specialist's own catalogue page, cited below — a parts catalogue is good evidence for what a part number is and what it fits, and it is not factory literature, so read every figure on this page as the catalogue's claim rather than as a service-manual specification.
