IS there a benefit to using the lucas trans lube. it sure is expensive

 

all the additives like that are pricie havent used much lucas besides the oil treatment

 

the only advice I give is, if you havent done regular tranny flushes or service then I would steer clear. I also wouldnt do a tranny service on a tranny that has never been serviced and has over 80K on it. The reason being that through the years particles are created from wear and what ever contamination there is and find little spots to hang out in that are harmless. When you do a flush or service new fluid has detergents and can loosen the particles in a bigger form and can create issues.
these are all opinions that I have gathered from tranny guys and forum talk.
I know a few shops that will not do a tranny flush on any vehicle with over 60k and no record of tranny service.


on a side note their power steering fluid is the shizzle. Ford guys love it because it get rid of the legendary Ford steering pump wine

 

Lubeguard black bottle is the only thing I would ever add to my trans.
