    I am also an instant shutter fix believer. I was extremely close to probably replacing a transmission in my 2014 Ford Explorer. I found this product on UA-cam. I bought it and tried it and almost instantly it fix the shutter and I can’t fathom that a professional mechanic Would not have told me about this product rather than hose me and charge me $5000 for transmission. I am probably one month since adding this product to my car and I keep expecting the problem to come back. One of those too good to be true moments!

      Problem with mechanics is that they could easily use this product in someone’s vehicle and charge them for a $5000.00 replacement. Know your mechanic and always mark your existing part in an inconspicuous place. Shudder fix is too good to be true. It certainly solved my problem.

    After watching your video I pumped out 14 quarts of fluid by pumping the transmission fluid out through the dipstick tube 2-3 qts at a time and added three tubes of shudder fix and a bottle of lube gard platinum and it seems like a new transmission. No shudder and shifting perfect.

    So if you understand what it is and how it works that will explain to you how it works so quickly. Essentially there is a film that builds up on the plates of the torque converter, and that causes them to slip and thus the "shudder". So this stuff chemically breaks the bonds of that film down so it no longer slips. Since it's a chemical reaction, it's really quick, you basically just gotta mix it in there good.

      I really think it's all about when you catch it. The shudder has started to return twice, but after adding more Instant Shudder Fixx, it drives like new again. I'm 800 miles away from the 60,000-mile mark (of driving with ISF) and it will be 2 years since adding this October!

    I have a mustang that has a shutter around 45 mph on a slight incline in 3rd gear just before it shifts into OD.. I did a complete flush of the trans fluid, dropped the pan replaced the filter, and added two of the little packs of Instant Shudder Fixx. The shift points did improve and the shudder isn't as noticeable.. every now and then it still happens.. My money is on the torque converter.

    • @j2review

      Thank you for sharing your knowledge, expertise and experience on this subject! As shown in later videos, I ultimately ended up dropping the pan on my transmission twice and replacing the fluid and filter both times. I'm no longer using instant shudder fixx or any other additives and so far, things have been pretty good. I must give credit to ISF for buying me time to figure out what the issue was with my transmission without having to replace or even repair it. Every once in a while, the torque converter will make a noise, so you are correct to put your money on that being the issue. Moving forward, I will be changing the transmission fluid & filter every 30,000 miles.

    *This video is a great review update on the product. All it is, is an anti-friction additive. It is science. But not witchcraft. LoL!*
    *As a mechanic of over 40 years, I can hands-down say, there is nothing wrong with Chrysler/Dodge/Jeep (and dissolved manufacturers under the umbrella) when comparing to any other vehicle brand. I have had so many Fords. Their greatest engines are the 3.0 V6 Vulkan (reliability and fuel economy), the 4.6 V8 Modular, 5.0 (any gen incl. the Coyote). All fanstastic engines. Their 3.8 Essex is trash. Their Zetec is not great. Their Duratecs are great. Duratec was engineered by Porsche.*
    *But I have owned a Plymouth Neon Expresso 2 door, 5 speed manual. 2.0 DOHC i4, a 2.5 Turbo i4 Plymouth Voyageur, a 3.0 V6 Chrysler Town & Country and a 3.3 V6 Dodge Grand Caravan. I currently own a 1992 Chrysler LeBaron 3.0 LX sedan. I have had other products from them with zero issues. Like the Eagle Vision (Chrysler Intrepid).*
    *As a mechanic, I have rebuilt loads of vehicles under every brand. People become biased because they are not knowledgeable about what they are dealt and grow disdain towards things through their ignorance.*
    *I've also owned 20+ GMs. My favorite by FAR were my two Buick Roadmaster Limited cars. A 1992 Sedan with an L05 350 and a 1996 black and red station wagon with an LT1 350. Nothing lasted as long as those cars.*
    *PS - I've also rebuilt/repaired and owned loads of Toyotas/Lexus, Honda/Acura, Nissan/Infinity, BMW, VW/Audi, and much more.*

For what it's worth, I used to flush all of my transmissions every 60,000 miles but changing the fluid & filter just shy of 188,000 miles was a real game changer for me. After that, I changed it again at 202k because it started to act up again but now I'm currently about to cross the 214,000-mile mark. I'm planning to do it one more time around 230,000 miles if it behaves that long. Please note, I bought the vehicle with 37,000 miles on it and drove with that original fluid in it until changing at 187,955. I'm hoping I can take that transmission to 300,000 miles before having to replace it but only time will tell...
