alright i know i mean a quick fix... i.e. tranny flush, better fluid... are there any tricks for the sc400 transmission, i know it has that "ect pwr/normal" thing, would that have anything to do with it? im active duty military and really dont have the time or the money to deal with rebuilding a tranny.

***? Nice....I guess you could try everything you mentioned and all the special additives at Pep-Boys/Autozone, but in the end there's no quick fix that'll keep the internal clutches from slipping....therefore: Have it rebuilt....Little advice, lose the attitude and perhaps others will be more willing to offer there opinions...I would have expected better from a U.S. Serviceman..

Dude are ****ing kidding me, Gspec was helping you and call him an ***...........dude just go away. If your tranny is slipping there is no QUICK fix when you have a slipping transmission and obviously Gspec knows that as does any person with half a brain, now go get the tranny rebuilt and stay off of CL you are not welcomed. If you cant afford to do that then sell the SC and get a cheaper car because there is going to be much more expensive repairs in the near future.
