Lucas Transmission Stop Slip - amzn.to/2JP3OEG
In this video, I put Lucas Transmission Stop Slip to the test. I used a 2004 Pontiac Grand Am with the 2.2 L Ecotec engine and Auto Transmission. This stuff really helps! - Авто та транспорт
It's so hard to watch a whole video to the end without going to check the comments anybody else agree
Hell yeah
I was just about to do that
I aver
That's where the pros and cons are debated; mostly in good faith too.
LMFAO....very true
Mine took about two weeks to cure my tyranny slipping. But it did stop it completely.
Glad it worked for you!!! I ended up replacing the transmission with one from the salvage yard. All is well now. :)
Fili Tamayo how many miles did you drive for those 2 weeks? I put Lucas in my Pontiac Grand Prix se tranny this past Sunday and it seems to be working better now.
Mine too three days it had to get the air bubbles out
The bottle has a tapered spout so that you can slip a clear plastic hose over it and put the other end into the fill hole. Then no matter where the fill hole is the plastic hose will find it. Before putting the oil in using a plastic hose just put the bottle of Lucas into a bucket half filled with HOT water for a time, it will run in much faster.
I used some today and now my transmission works great. I thought for sure I was going to have to get a new transmission but nope. I went to Walmart bought a siphoner put the hose down the transmission hole where the dipstick goes took five courts of transmission fluid out put a quart of Lucas stop slip in 4 quarts Valvoline high-mileage synthetic transmission fluid and now it works perfect. Could have just been the fact that I just put new fluid in but I added some Lucas stop slip it in there anyway and like I said it seems to work perfect now. So if anybody out there it's having transmission problems try that
I trust every product lucas makes. If my mechanic recommends it then there you have it.
Thanks for this review. I have had pretty good luck with Lucas. HOWEVER-- be sure to tuck in your drawstrings on your hoodie when working on a running motor. I was cringing while watching your video. The thought of a drawstring wrapping around your water pump pully and pulling your head into the fan keeps old guys like me up at night. Good video
That is a really good tip. I get so into doing the repair, forgetting about safety is easy. :/ I appreciate you watching!
You do realize that the string is more likely to break or slip through the hood than it is to pull his head down? none the less i agree with you on minimizing risks like this.
My dad was working under the hood of a customers vehicle, when the red grease rag that he had in his hand got caught in the fan belt. He thought he snatched his hand away quick enough, but when he looked at his hand, the index finger tip was missing. I remember his face turning white. The index tip was found under the vehicle and we placed it on ice. The hospital was able to reattach it. I was younger when this happened but remember it clear as yesterday. I’m always cautious when I’m working on a vehicle.
And a funnel would help too!!!
@@757mosco wow. Amazing experience, but scary too. Stay safe
Just used some of this stuff on my 99 explorer, had serious hard shifting problems and slippage when shifting gears, noticed an improvement immediately, still have an occasional slip but totally worth for 9 bucks
Shot Caller that’s awesome man. I have a 2000 Honda Civic LX with 197,000 miles on it, and for the first time ever. I experienced slippage. Going to AutoZone tomorrow after work to grab some. 👍
johnny Macon decided to put a good refurbished transmission mission in. Luckily my uncle knows some really good mechanics
I swear by Lucas. After a few added miles of driving and it settles in u will get the full feeling.
That's what my 2002 s10 did I changed my filter and fluid and added this to my fluid and it stopped the hesitation and rpms it took about 3 days of driving
AMAZING Product - its stopped 70% of my slipping right away, have driven my car 310miles already and going to do a transmission fluid change, and add another full bottle.. my experience would be to keep adding 1/4 of it every day ! Highly recommend the product for $ 16.00 !
A good solution is to change the transmission fluid over to the valvoline synthetic as soon as possible.
A hand vacuum pump works easily for those inclined to not disassemble anything .... get the pump at northern tool and some clear tubing from lowes that fits into your transmission dipstick hole .. suck all the fluid you can out and replace with fresh ... to be most effective, this will take at least two times times to remove all the spoiled fluid. Drive your truck awhile , at least 300 miles before repeating ...
I've done this on a 1994 silverado with 250k miles with great success ... still shifting and going strong after three years .....
Also remember when you are towing anything, place your truck, not in overdrive but the second D. Somewhere it's recommended in the owners manual .
Your transmission cost way more than a few tanks of gas. .
Check your throttle position sensor I changed it and it seems to shift great now
@James Wadsworth I believe he's talking about the shift solenoid not the tps
I was gonna say tv cable or shift solenoid. Throttle position sensor will give you a check light
Basically Lucas helps lube everything up, sorta helps renew old fluid, and it helps older clutch packs grip better. It's like what 10-20 bucks? worst that happens is it doesn't work.
My CL Type-S has around 160k on it and the clutch packs would slip up a bit when cruising and cause RPMs to surge. so I just poured some of this stuff in and half a bottle was good enough to keep the clutch packs from slipping.
can't say anything but good about this transmission genie in a bottle.
28 dollars in Australia. That is Australian dollars.
@@7316bobe So? Who cares?
@@billbosch9127 why the poor attitude you should be happy you're alive and healthy and you're not a car that we're shoving chemicals down your throat you got to beating heart and blood circling through your vein and you woke up this morning be thankful. I hope I can see a better response from you instead of your answer which was who cares. People take the time to make these videos and to go out of their way to show others if you have nothing better to do maybe you should go purchase a car and use this product for you to leave a better detailed message on your detailed experience Mr and Mrs who cares.
Hell yeah it works! Had a 94 ford Thunderbird That slipped. Got me home. Eventually changed the transmission fluid. Love that stuff.
I got a free S-10 with almost 350k miles and the previous owner did a full machine flush of the transmission and it caused serious problems. It was so bad I thought the truck was shot. I bought this stuff and put it in and whola! it temporarily fixed the problem. Drove it a year and had no transmission issues but sold it due to firing problems non related obviously.
had a dilemma today, uncle came round with a issue with his car not shifting up and getting stuck in 2nd gear,told him transmission had to be repaired or replaced.
I replaced the trans fluid and added a bottle of lucas trans fix and guess what? it worked, car drives like before and goes through all gears.
another testament to lucas trans fix, my 1998 honda odyssey's auto transmission was slipping all gears, added the additive and its still driving around after 8 years!!
So when you use this stuff let's say my vehicle needs 3 quarts of trans oil, should I use 2 quarts of trans oil and them a quart of this? Or do all 3 quarts of trans and a quart of lucas?
Correct, if vehicle needs 3 quarts, Lucas is 1 quart and use 2 quarts of recommended trans fluid
When u add lucas ur suppose to cycle thru each gear for 20 second before driving that way u know the fuild has surpassed thru each gear but it seems as if u have a delayed shift because its holding in gear to long to pass to the next gear which can cause u to blow your trans try changing your shift solenoids and that shud do the trick
Make sense Chris
? What you mean make sense
@@chrislampkin4952 i have done some research that lucas dont last for a month or two? Is that correct Chris?
@@achmada9338 lucas isnt a permanent fix its just to help those that dont want to spend excess money to get the trans serviced if the trans is to far gone it wint help its just wasted money at that point it helps some it doesnt help others folks abuse cars to the lack of maintenance on the vehicle not checking fluids not listning to how yoir car sounds and feels ive been a mechanic for 4 years mostly work with chevy and like i said it's helps some and some it does not due to internal wear bad valvebodies bad clutches bad solenoids
@@chrislampkin4952 I have a 1999 Jeep Grand Cherokee it stays in 2nd gear too long and won’t go into 3rd gear. I have to let go of the gas for it to go into 3rd gear.. what can be my problem ?
Did you take out any fluid before the Lucas?
Hi Chad! Just wondering how the transmission is doing these days- how has the Lucas oil held up?
So on my 99 v6 Grand Am I found the only way to stop the hard shifts was to and an extra quart of atf.
Change your fluid and filter them add this and it will fix it fixed mine and it was hesitant in 1st and and 3rd and the rpms and gas weren't in sync I hdded this with a fluid change and it worked on my 2002 s 10 drives great again
Stuff like this convinces me to always buy stick shift vehicles.
Still has a trans and gears?
How does manuel vs automatic matter?
Until the clutch goes out. 😁 or your knee.
Need help. Long read ahead. I have a 1988 Honda Civic EF 1.3 automatic. I got the transmission changed in May last year because the previous transmission wasn't engaging from the 2nd gear to the 3rd gear. The new (second hand) transmission was fine then it started to show some lag when put in 'drive' (when the engine was cold). I was using the original Honda Transmission Fluid. Slowly that problem got worse and I'd have to keep the car running for about 10 minutes early in the morning and only then 'drive' will respond. I was advised by a local mechanic to change to Amsoil Transmission fluid as he mentioned it has additives and I did.
A) First Amsoil Transmission fluid change.
It showed improvements like the 'drive' gear engaging right after I started up the car but it would only coast in drive, stepping on the accelerator didn't have any response. I'd have to warm up the engine for maybe 3-4 minutes and would be able to drive off with no issues. I noticed with each passing week, I'd have to warm up the engine longer for the drive gear to engage. The problem came back in full swing after 3 months with newer symptoms. After warming up for about 10 minutes and driving off, the engine would have to rev up to 3k or even 4k in a very struggling manner and it would sound as though the engine has to work way harder to get from the first gear to the second gear. But once at operating temperature, the transmission works just fine and smooth but it would slip sometimes. This new symptom showed up after having driven the car for about 5k miles since the Amsoil Transmission fluid change.
B) Second Amsoil Transmission fluid change.
So I changed the fluid again and things got better than they were towards the end of 5k mileage of the first Amsoil fluid change. I drove another 5k miles and have another new symptom. The reverse gear won't engage when the engine is cold. So I'd have to keep the engine running for about 5 minutes for the reverse gear to engage and about 10 minutes for drive gear to engage with the current trans fluid. But, in order for first to second gear to shift smoothly, id have to run the engine for about 15 minutes (reach operating temperature). 15 minutes does the trick and the car runs just fine the whole day (absolutely smooth like a new car I'd say). But if I leave the car parked for a few hours, I'd have to run the engine for about 2-3 minutes for the gears to engage. This is the current situation I'm in.
So basically I have three problems:
1) Drive gear won't engage if car isn't warmed up.
2) First gear going into second struggles a lot if not sufficiently warmed up.
3) Reverse gear won't engage if the engine is not warmed up for 5 minutes.
My question is:
Would Lucas Transmission Fix be effective in helping me with this issue?
Any help that comes my way is very much appreciated. It's the only car I have and I absolutely love this car. Thank you so much.
Best transmission additive on the market.
But will it work on a tail shaft and seal bushing tho?
Nice, you saved some $$$$, now replace that cracked windshield.
ORION2180 lmao
Lucas fix it too...try and you'll see..
Lmaooo
I’m watching this video because I just had my transmission fluid changed and flushed and I had the stuff added. We have a 2010 Ford fusion with 136,000 miles on it. The guy I bought it from a month ago had never change the transmission fluid and it was really black inStead of orange. I was getting slippage in second and fifth gear. Since I had this put in last week the transmission hasn’t slept one time. I was just wondering if anyone has used it and it only works temporarily
I can swear on that thing. Added one bottle to my Chevy Tracker trans and have never had an issue after it
*I was scared as shit, to try this product*
YOUR video gave me a little hope. I have a 2007 Maxima. I might have been lazy or FORGOT to fill trans fluid, from time to time. Sooooooooo today I bought the product. I tried it out. I drove around and I DID INDEED feel a difference. I am in no way; getting overly excited. But I'm happy, just a little. I will drive it more tomorrow. It says to get another bottle for stronger results. Should I get another bottle or should I just add 1-2 quarts of CVT trans fluid ???
Do not get this for your cvt tranny. For you the best thing to do is a drain n fill and add the Lucas for Cvt tranny only and tell them to mix it and you should feel a difference then. While they add the treatment and new cvt oil go through the gears while car is on
A automatic transmission works by using hydraulic pressure to engage the stacks of clutches and if the seals are leaking do to wear and tear or the Valves have space between them and the valve body allowing pressure to slip by than any thickening of the Oil will create a higher pressure in the Transmissions hydraulic system. I have be using STP Motor Oil Treatment because of it's thickness for years and i come to find out that some Transmission rebuilders use it to hold the balls in place while assembly and to lube the seal and parts while assembly. I put it in my 4L60 and a 1987 Acadian after 10 years of driving and it was still being drove 5 years after that. So i can believe that a thick oil would make a transmission last a bit longer because i have been doing it since the 70's. My uncle drove a Dodge van from Ontario to Alberta in the 70's with a slipping transmission and a old timer said to add the STP to the Tranny before he started to leave and couldn't believe it after driving the van for 3 more years.
What's your favorite color
@@joe8772 🤣🤣
Its best to leave the bottle under the hood while the engine warms up. It helps thin out the Lucas Oil Stop Slip allowing it to flow through the nozzle and tube easier.
try using valvoline max life together with lucas......made my camry shift better
Ok K
I have read about Toyota owners having luck with Maxlife.
I'm thinking bout using it on my 1999 Toyota solara that might help my slipping issues 🤔
Yes. It worked great in my Lexus. 3 years ago...still rolling...runs great.
Yup! Golden!
Any update ? did it continue to work after more miles?
Hey JMC2013! So, yes, it continued to work as I put a lot more miles on it. I would totally recommend this stuff!
Lucas Transmission oil make drivers drive like crazy people
Steve Money i laughed so hard reading this 🤣 i think a couple people can attest to this
When I first put this in my truck, I floored it in my neighborhood to see if my tranny was still slipping
Idiot
It's been a while. Is the car still alive? If so, is the gearbox still working good?
Got some shifting problems in my ZJ and i'm thinking of trying this trick before tearing the transmission down...
I have a Dodge Dakota and I got a hard shift on my second shift and fourth shift and I'm going to go to my parts store and purchase this Lucas I like the idea that he the bottle up either in some hot water or put it on your motor those two people that gave that advice brilliant so I'll do one or the other and I hope I get a good positive feedback I'm going to drive it 30 40 miles today park it come Monday it's going back on the freeway which I'll put a hundred miles in one day and then all week I should put about a good 700 mi on it so I'm really going to see the difference a lot of people drive their car around the block and neighborhood and other people said you least need a hundred miles before you really see some good performance and I'm talking to mechanics and they say a minimum of 100 miles before you could even give your true opinion so everybody has a different way of saying and teaching I appreciate everybody I'm going to give it the $700 one week mile test and I'll give my experience a road review next Saturday thank you guys I have a Dodge Dakota 4.7 v8 the second shift and hard shift are hard they're not hard they're jolts it runs great and it purrs like a kitten and it shifts and it drives just fine once it's on the road so let's see if if I got a winner here and I could leave a good review I like what I'm hearing so far thank you very much Happy camping happy Saturday happy June 2022 over and out
@@jonchristian6469 I hope it works for you! It did help me some, but in my case, driving with the TV cable unhooked combined with the previous owner forcing the car with locked up brakes killed my clutches.
Hopefully you get better results, and either way, please do share them here! 👍🏻
Have a great weekend 😊
I have a 1990 Lincoln MarkV11 LSC, 79,000 miles! When I put it in Drive one, at 40 miles per hour, the Transmission slips! The Tach revs up, car won't go any faster! I I shift into Drive 2, it shifts fine! Tranny Shop says it's the Overdrive and needs to be fixed! Should I try the Lucas? Car is immaculate, the only one of its kind still registered in my state, Connecticut!
I think for the $10, then it would be worth trying. It isn't going to hurt trying. Let us know how it works!
Did you try and use the Lucas..and did it work?
Worked in my Camry my car has 300,000 miles on original transmission and engine no slips at all good preventative maintenance
Jacob's Random how many bottles you put ?My camry slip in forward (ride smooth in reverse).I'd this product worth or no?
@@ivanchostefanovski2351 what year..how many miles? Has fluid/ filter ever been changed? Let me know and I will share my experience with this product.
Twice change the fluid and second time changed the filter.The 3 magnets on the pan is absolutely clean both time.There is no metal on them.J wash the old filter and there is no metal .The old filter was clean.J don't know what to do .J started to look for manual transmission. This automatic is rubbish.

Not a bad idea to heat up the lucas in a bucket of hot water to make it flow easier when you pour.
YES IT WORKS!!!!! my car was slipping bad on third gear, couldn't go above 40...very bad! Mechanic recommended gear change.... And just getting off my car HAPPY! It's as new! Just changed it today and at first it got a little worse.... "HOLD" was getting activated automatically, then it started improving lets say after 15 minutes of drive.... Drove it about 150 km... Gear was showing problem with less slippage but could go up to 80 only and still some slippage on 3rd gear! Gave it some rest and just returned from a drive! It's as NEW!
I'm soooooooooooo Happy right now!
Just have a strong urge to go and literally screw those mechanics who recommended gear change and didn't know about this!
I've seen it do miracles. Doesn't mean it will help every situation.
Looks like it has the gm standard evap causing check engine light too lol.. mine has been on for 4 years, no matter what evap parts I change
Oh, I ran my scanner on it and it was the O2 sensor.... It seems to be one or the other with this car lol Replaced it last week and all is well now :)
@@ChadWilliamsFixesAll p0420? Does the engine burn oil?
Nah, mine didn’t burn any oil. Just leaked
Hey man? Did you sell the S10 or what? I have a 2002 GMC Sonoma pretty much the same truck. Just wondering, I'm about to put a new radio in , the other video u have is awesome thanks. And I've been using Lucas for years it's well worth the 10$
Hey Zackery! Yeah, I did end up selling the S10 at the end of that winter. I was mostly using it as a winter beater as I didn't want to drive the Scion tC I had. I appreciate you watching the videos! If you need any help with the radio install, shoot me a comment! Otherwise, good luck! :)
If the tranby is at the full mark can i still add a bottle without draining any fluid?
I added some of that today (perhaps my Google searches this morning caused this video to pop up). Worked great for me. We'll see if it stays that way
Updates?
@@austinhollad4527 as far as additives go, this one worked better than most. No real issues since adding it.
Any suggestions on pouring it in when it's cold... its freezing out and took forever to pour half the bottle.
And it flows out if I squeeze the bottle
Warm the Lucas bottle up in half a 4 gallon bucket of HOT water and it will go a lot faster.
Did this stuff fix your automatic gearbox problems. Please Reply as I want to try some but I do not want to damage my auto box any more that it is.
It's been a month or so. Have the results held up?
Still similar, little slippage, but better than it was. I am currently taking the transmission out now to replace it. Hopefully all will be well after.
It's been a year since you posted the video how is the car doing with the Lucas Oil? Did you have to replace the transmission did you have to replace the oil is there any update?
I'm wondering the same
Hey guys, I did end up replacing the transmission in the end. This stuff helped, but I wanted it fixed completely.
Could Audi Q7 year 2011 diesel turbo engine TDI with dual Auto and manual using this Lacus transmission oil fix? As my Q7 having oil leaks between the engine mounting and gear box and very little unsmooth changing gear as well despite I had just change the gear box oil. So please let me know which is the Lacus suitable fix oil? thanks
So did you have to get your transmission completely rebuilt or just the solenoid?
I have a 2010 Toyota Camry, Never had problems but now it won't move. The car turns on everything works except it won't move as if it's neutral.
Mandy Lee Lozano did you put some of this in you're car?
Either the solenoids are stuck or the clutches are not grabbing like they should. Hopefully the clutches are not worn out or damaged because they are inside there and replacing them can be very expensive. Some mechanics would just get a rebuilt transmission. Does the car have a lot of miles? They do eventually wear out.
My car was driving just shifting little hard if accelarate quick or on hill so i put this in day later my trans is gone yes I had high mileage on my camry but i could have drove another who knows 50k plus if i dint use this . So maybe if you have high mileage or dirty trans dont do it . They should put a warning on this bottle
Did you take out the same amount of transmission fluid ounces as the Lucas bottle first before adding the Lucas? You need to take out trans fluid before adding this stuff or it'll overfill your trans and kill it. As long as the fluid level is within range on the dip stick you're good. So if you were low on fluid you might not have to take any trans fluid out before you add this stuff, but if the level is good then you've got to take some out otherwise you overfill it.
My transmission is slipping and won’t stop I have to wait for it to switch gears then car cuts off sometimes was just working last week now it’s acting up what do I do ?😫
How do you know if you need new transmission mounts or if your transmission is just slipping??
My husband loves this stuff
i used this product it worked great
My honda crv 2000 automatic would shift between park and reverse and nothing else, tried to get it into gear with a lot of force and nothing. I put this stuff in and let it idle for only a minute or so and it completely fixed it, I can't believe it!
Can you add this to a brand new car or a car that don't have transmission issues as to help prolong the life of the transmission?
No need to.. just check your owners manual as to when to change the fluid and change it regularly along with the filter and you should be fine.
The oil spill looks like mickey mouse
😂😂
Do I have to add a bottle of Lucas every time I service my transmission…????????
My 2001 Ford F-150 is doing that exact same thing
my 2004 ss monte carlo automatic transmission started slipping and now only reverses, will this product fix all the gears if i use it?
Honestly, I don’t this will help you. Those transmissions in the Monte Carlos are known to go bad. Best bet is probably to replace.
Agreed, this stuff isn't gonna fix a bad transmission. Better off changing it out on the Monte. I have a 2005 Monte LT and I have gone through 2 transmissions...in 160k miles.
If you only had 3rd and 4th issues it was probably only a solenoid
How do you change the Solenoid?
@@anniegibson5092 You take the valve body out
3/4 clutches are most likely burnt
Hopefully this buys you some time before replacing!
I actually already replaced it with a used transmission from the salvage yard. All is well now. :)
Chad Williams
Good to hear!
So did you drain the fluid all the way down first??
A long nose funnel would make it easier to fill. Good vid tho. Thnx.
This stuff pours like STP/Molasses and it's NOT a small bottle {24oz). It will soon often be -10 to -20 degrees below zero here. With temps like that, my worry would be transmission cold engagement problems. That, by itself, could CAUSE damage. This is the only thing holding me back from using this right now. I asked Lucas this same question.........and they ignored my email. I may have to use "Trans Medic" instead. I was a Chevrolet technician and service mgr. for over 30 years.
Trust me it works
@@commonsenceaintsocommonnom1496 I finally did hear back from Lucas. They said not to use it in temperatures below +20 or +30 degrees fahrenheit. So sub zero temps are a no go.
Does anyone remember transmission go?
Would this be considered a temporary fix? If so, how long does this last? I have a 2014 Kia Cadenza with 176,200 miles. I have a bad case of Lead Foot, and recently the car doesn't seem too happy about it, the trans seems a bit jerky. No slipping, just harder/confused shifts.
Some drive for years doing this. I am four years in and a friend I helped with his jeep he is also four years later. Zero issues. He didn't even change any fluid. His was a little low so we just poured this goop in and away he drove up a steep hill ..slipping gone. Had been slipping for over 6 months..hasn't slipped since. I kid you not.
It did for me, 2015 Silverado slipping badly, one bottle all good, no slip
How is it holding up? How did you get enough fluid out to add it?
He didn’t... you can just add it to the existing fluid.
It works well .
Do i have to drain some transmission fluid before adding lucas. I just had a oil change
You definitely don’t want to overfill it. I would add a little, then check your dipstick. Then add more if you can.
LMAO engine oil and trains oil are two completely different fluids... id wouldn't touch my car if i was you victoriaa...
here's some pro tips, change your windshield, vacuum all the leaves on top of the firewall, get a long funnel and don't count on snake oil in place of proper maintenance
To each of your 3 points... Agreed, Agreed, and Agreed lol But with all seriousness, you are right. I have been using a funnel more and this stuff is only a band aid. Also, I got a shop vac after this video was made, I did a review on it on my channel. Love it! Thanks for watching!
You're just an asshole!
Can I add this stuff on my 2009 Nissan Versa Ls ???
👍
Would this fix my bad input shaft bearing ?
No, no it won't help that.
2:54 what the warning light at dashboard??
guys i don;t think it will fixed it raightway when u add the oil it need maybe at least one night then next day u see the the inproments i guess couse it is not a magic oil
You need flush dex 6 and factory original gasket n filter then lucus
Any updates?? Thx
If the issue comes back u done it all wrong... What u should have done was changed the filter n the fluid that comes with it...
That's what I said . Had a 2000 bonnie that went completely out no drive r reverse at all , put that in mf started back driving then I changed the fluid son of a b took me a long ways still was driving when I sold it
A Copart flippers best friend, don't you judge me!
oh my god. you ran over micky mouse.
Can I add this even if my transmission fluid is full?
No.
empty out the amount you want and fill it back up if you add some while its completely full its gonna foam up and ruin your transmission
@@KDMFrost no it wouldn't you can add it
I put locas and my transmission
Does not work anymore

Dont put locas, remember Lucas
I have a 2001 maxima with 203k miles
It was shifting bad all gears
Then check engine came on P0744 one day.
While
Investigating the code discovered that transmission fluid was dark
So I decided to do a transmission drain and fill. 4 qts came out
It was black brown, didn’t smell bad
No Metallic tint , no metal shavings in old fluid. Also the level was t up to the full level but in the ok area .
I added 3.5 qts of Valvoline max life ATF (synthetic). And 1 bottle of Lucus
Turned off the code and drove it
Code came back in 70 miles
But was shifting a lot better
At 300 miles post ATF service it was almost back to normal. At 600 miles it was 90% better. And got better as the more it was driven. I haven’t cleared the code again now that it’s driving better to see if it comes back
I have a theory what is up with the P0744 is that since it had dirty fluid
Perhaps the TCC solenoid is sticking.
And atf service with Lucus and helping
I may have to try seafoam trans tune to drive it 1000 miles and change the atf to try to clean it out.
Cheers Lucus is some good stuff.
It doesn’t fix it but buys you some time.
Does it work in a cvt car
So do you add the fluid when the car has been on for a bit or do you add the fluid as soon as you turn your car on???
Honestly, either is ok. The warmth of the transmission after running it may help the transmission fluid flow easier into it, but that is the only thing I can think of. Thanks for watching!!!
Chad Williams how long should I keep the car running??
The transmission won’t really warm up unless you drive it. If you are still driving the car, just do it when you get back from going somewhere
I recommend doing a full transmission fluid change, including the filter.
Subtract the quart from the recommended transmission fluid capacity, add the Lucas anti-slip, and you'll be fine for at 50k miles!
My transmission is 300k miles old, and it works like a dream.
Read the directions, Danny
Why everyone takes long to fill can’t you just take the other cap off that’s a waste of gas man... why can’t you just unscrew the other cap pour in the funnel
You totally can, I just chose to do it this way
Well reading all comments and using lucas religiously on all my 200 dollar wrecker bound V8 5.9 L 46re ... put another 200,000 km on her and as far as filling goes if you want to not be filling it for hour or Two .. no matter what funnel u use ... u must apply warm heat to the lucas bottle tiĺl fluid not so thick ... other wise its gumms up dip stick tube
Warren ewart nanaimo B.C canada heat lucas bottle before filling tip of all tips
Super‼️
👍😉😀
Shit....on that car you should use oil stabilizer too....haha
How bout for my 2005 Scion tc?
Honestly, I don't know with those 2.4 liter 4 cylinders. Those things are always having issues with oil. Usually it is the piston rings that gunk up and allows oil to seep past and burn. It could be worth a shot though!
Will this work on a 2016 yukon with the new 6l80 e ????? Anyone ???
It's no way a 2016 car tranny should already be gone!!
Yes
How many miles on the car?
I am pretty sure it was around 150,000 miles
You sure you weren't just low on fluid?
Very sure! I have another video on my channel explaining how to check the fluid level on these Grand Ams as they have the “maintenance free” transmission.
Chad Williams Yeah I had a grand prize that was that way....gotcha
Try some synchromax by royal purple

This doesn’t work on CVTs to you Honda and Nissan folks!
I wanna know if this product works or not?
Gustavo Ruiz Yes it DOES!!!
No police around there lol
can use for CVT engine ?
Wish they never got rid of Pontiac.
Same...
warm the bottle in a microwave or pan of hot water so it will flow faster...
