This has been said before but Ill say it again. Never put any transmission fluid in to any Dodge/Chrysler other than ATF + 2 or ATF +3 or ATF +4 or 7176. Any garage or Transmission shop that states that they use Dexron plus an additive to bring it to ATF standards dont know what they are doing. Your Dodge tranny was engineered for a specific type of fluid as are other manufactors , to use anything other than the proper fluid is going to cause real problems and lots of money. If you experience any shudder during moderate acceleration youve got the wrong fluid. This is one sign of wrong fluid but there are other signs to do with shift smoothness etc.
