Currently my tranny has been slipping a little bit for a while now and I heard about this lucus product and wanted to know it was true, since I need to add one quart of tranny fluid to my car, I thought maybe I can substitute this product for the tranny fluid that I was going to put it.

its says for badly worn tranny;s that it will require two bottles, would that be my case since my tranny is slipping at the moment.

As far as I know, Lucas products work well.
However, it does seem like snake oil.

But hey, it couldn't hurt. If it works, please let me know, i need something for my tranny...hard shifts at times, slipping, all that fun stuff.

At best it's a bandaid there is no cure for worn hard parts that pour out of a can,it may help some for a while but be prepared to bite the bullet .

Worn clutches are worn clutches. You can't fix them with magic liquid. I believe this is just a bottle of friction modifiers that may help the clutches grab a little longer. Start saving your cash for a new tranny.

what ever either of you two do... dont change the trany fluid! if you do you have less then a few weeks before bye bye trany... all that friction material is in the fluid... without it clutches dont grip and they will slip more until there isnt anything left on the clutches
