Can you mix dexron VI with dexron III?
DEXRON-VI can be used in any proportion in past model vehicles equipped with an automatic transmission, in place of DEXRON-III (for instance, topping off the fluid in the event of a repair or fluid change). DEXRON-VI is also compatible with any former version of DEXRON for use in automatic transmissions.
Can I mix dexron 3 and dexron 4?

What can you use in place of ATF 4?
AMSOIL Multi-Vehicle ATF is a qualified replacement for ATF+4.
What is the difference between ATF 3 and ATF 4 transmission fluid?

Can I mix different brand of ATF?
Is it OK to mix synthetic ATF with a conventional and/or synthetic blend ATF? Yes. Synthetic ATF and conventional fluids are 100 percent compatible with each other.

Dexron VI is the recommended replacement and has better and more stable chemistry than does Dexron III (H). I think you better look again… Your wrong. If you’re looking to stick with Dexron III, instead of switching to Dexron VI, you might want to consider an Allison TES 295 approved fluid.
What is the best substitute for Dexon III?
Mercon V is a better substitute for Dexon III than Dexron VI. Dexron is a very light oil like Mercon LV. I had to research this when I changed the trans fluid on my 4Runner which called for Dexron III. Ignor my previous post. Had to make some corrections… Mercon V is a better substitute for Dexron III than Dexron VI.

Is Dexron VI the same thing as Mercon LV?
Dexron VI is more or less the same thing as Mercon LV, and is nothing like Dexron III. I’d stick with Dexron III if that’s what your car specs. It’s cheaper and easier to come by as well, IIRC. Excellent link to GM tsb on topic by NothingNew.
