just wondering if it is a good idea to put in Lucas transmission additive in a 2000. Just thought maybe it would help. Thanking everyone in advance....Dan

I personally see no need to add anything to your tranny except the correct fluid, I know won't.

Several years ago, my Cadillac transmission began slipping when cold. A friend suggested Lucas transmission fix before paying for a rebuild. I tried it and the problem immediately went away. 50,000 miles later I am still driving the car with no problems. I havent needed anything in my PSD but I would try it in mine before paying for a rebuild.

Remember there is a world of difference in tooling around on the flats in a 4,000 lb cruisemobile than trying to drag 20,000lbs up a 7or8% grade. IMO bandiad fixes for our vehicles is only asking for every larger problems at the most inopportune time and that often equates into wasted expense and inconvenience. That's just been my experience.
