hey everyone. i just did the trucks first tranny fluid change and adjusted the bands. i took it out for a test ride and everything is great. i think adjusting the bands got rid of my 2-3 gear hunt cuz i couldnt make it happen but we'll see. Anyway my question is, is anyone using a tranny additive like lucas? I love lucas products and id like to use it as PM. just curious thanks.

I've used the lucas stuff and honestly dont know if it is doing anything to help but i put it in because i think it helps. I'll have to check out that napa stuff

 

Do your homework on the lucas additives.

15 years ago i put thier additive in my wifes grand cherokee's engine.

Right away it had lower oil pressure, by 1/2!! I shut it off and pulled the dipstick. It was all foamy---full of bubbles way up on the stick 2 inches above the full mark. Lifters clattered too.

So I drained it and the pressure was back to normal.

And NO I didn't over fill it.
It was mixed with Mobil Delvac 15w40.

 

I put in my 94 Ram with a 318 and it did wonders. it got rid off rough starts and made it prr like a kitty. Anyway i like any advice i get but not when its 48re compared grand cherokee's engine. Im not only looking for lucas products i just like them.

 

No additives with ATF+4. Nada. Nothing. Period.

All the additives on the market effectively try to make a synthetic out of the non-syn fluids. ATF+4 is a group 3 synthetic so it doesn't need anything added.

 

Also should add, that is running plain ole ATF too...
