The Dodge Caravan uses Automatic Transmission Fluid (ATF) for its transmission. The specific type of ATF recommended for the Dodge Caravan is ATF PLUS 3 Type 7176. It is important to use the proper transmission fluid for your vehicle to ensure optimal performance and longevity of the transmission.
Please note that the Dodge Grand Caravan, which is a different model, uses ATF+ Type III, also known as Dexron II and Mercon, as its recommended transmission fluid.
It is always a good idea to consult your vehicle’s owner’s manual or contact a trusted mechanic to confirm the specific transmission fluid requirements for your Dodge Caravan.
