Lightbulb transmission additives

Has anyone used Lucus Oil transmission fix additive? I just purchased it yesterday for my p98 gs400. I noticed after use, that the shifts are much more smother rather than notchy. Any thoughts on the product?

I've used many Lucas products. They are top notch...among the best in the business. I have also noticed smooth shifting when used in other vehicles...

Greatest stuff ever, I had a transmission slipping all over the place on my eclipse, it needed a $2k rebuild. Tossed some lucas in it, just to get it driveable, then traded it into lexus and picked up my GS4

I was going to ask that ? also if anyone is using additives in there oil.... I was going to use the lucas but wanted some opinions first..... I used lucus in my 95 mustang gt and i think thats why it went to 150,000 miles... That stuff is great and they stand behind there product....

One quick trick....Since the lucas additive is a petrolum based material.... stick the bottle in a tub of hot water for about 15 min. and then it will come out alot easier..... tmf

sorry, i used the oil additive not tranny additive...
