I posted this on the s/v90 forum as a response to another thread, but that forum looks like a road less travelled...

What's the deal with the occasional advice that synth ATF will damage seals/gaskets, etc? This seems especially true with regard to high milage. Seems I have seen posts to this affect and recently got the same *advice* from a local indy volvo mechanic. Yet here on the board the overwhleming advice seems to be synth ATF is the way to go. Thoughts?

(if there is a prior post that covers this please direct me to it - I've looked, but haven't found anything conclusive).
