Manual Transmissions don't slip. The clutch could be slipping, but lucas
additive won't fix that.

INFO:
Lucas will not stop a clutch from slipping.
Manual transmission will have a fill plug on the side of the transmission.

RECOMENDATION:

Have the clutch inspected by your local repair shop.

Hope this tip helps you.

My 96 Camry 4-cylinder got really low on transmission fluid and started slipping in first gear. should I do a fluid flush and add more Lucas transmission stop slip?

It's worth a try. I would suggest Trans-X. Do a fluid and filter change and add 1 quart of Trans-X instead of a quart of fluid. Then drive the car on a road trip. Get about 100 miles on it and check the fluid level. The Trans-X is mostly solvent and will evaporate off rather quickly, say within the first week, and then top off the fluid. If it doesn't work, you will be looking at a rebuild or replacement with a good used unit.

Merc clk 1999 fault

on most cars, you need to change the neutral safety switch. this car has a neutral parking position sensor, you can find it for v6 not v8, it also fits a saab 9-3. it is the same thing, a different style. however, check the transmission fluid level and troublecodes for p07xxs. reset the code and use the transmission dipstick by dorman add lucas auto trans fluid, not stop slip to the fill line. most of the time it's not the solenoid, but the auto trans plate, overfilling the fluid can cause it to trigger a check engine light, and the fluid leaking onto it can cause it to be permanently damaged, it's more than $400 for the part. lucas works in the 722.xx transmissions, most , all, clks 99-2002, just make sure the tranny model isn't a 238. i like it better than atf 134. However, these parts are very heat sensitive. fill the trans fluid, reset the troublecodes, do a general motos drive cycle from obdii.com if it doesn't drive good after four times, change the neutral safety switch. :)

My trans working fine then it stop at once no revs or driv i checked the transfer case it is ok .like if i put it in neutral when i was driving 1998 zr2 4wd

This is a little out of my area without in depth questions.

ASSUMING that you have an automatic...
The least expensive thing you can do is to check your fluid level first then add one quart of Lucas transmission additive and let it idle for 20-30 minutes before trying to put in gear. If you feel it going into gear then its possible that the valve body was lacquered up and stuck.

NOTE: After driving three to five hundred miles and all is well drain/remove two quarts of fluid and add one more quart of Lucas or what and whatever trans fluid is needed to level. You do not want long term driving overfilled.

I am not associated with Lucas other than love their products.

If no work, sorry to say, get a mechanic or tow truck.

Good Luck!

2006 dodge grand caravan transmission fluid low but cannot find a leak

check your rear main seal. Also try changing your trans fluid, trans filter, and your transmission pan seal. I recommend you put lucas transmission oil in it and a quart of the Lucas Stop Slip and leak sealer

TRANSMISSION SLIPS AND SHIFTS HARD, AUTOMATIC

Often the cause is low transmission fluid. Follow the instructions in your manual for checking it, because unlike checking your oil level, checking transmission fluid levels require that the vehicle is running.

Please, by no means do this check if you are uncomfortable doing it. Have a "gearhead" friend that you trust or a mechanic show you how.

Most manufacturers ask that you start the car, and while holding down the brake pedal, slowly shift through reverse and then all your forward gears, then place the car back in park.

Next (with the car running- CAREFUL!), find the transmission dipstick under the hood, pull it out, and wipe it off. Put the dipstick back in, pull it out and check the level. If it is low, you need to add some transmission fluid of the type specified by your manual into the dipstick hole (you will need an inexpensive transmission fill funnel), a little at a time, and keep checking it as described above until it is at the FULL mark.

It is important to note that the dipstick is marked FULL HOT (car is warmed up) and FULL COLD (car is NOT warmed up) because transmission fluid expands quite a bit and overfilling is bad for your tranny!

I own a Jeep with a Chrysler "straight six" engine (one of the best motors ever!) and my transmission slipped because of low fluid - I added a bottle of "transmission stop slip and stop leak" fluid to it and topped off the remainder with the proper type of transmission fluid, and now, seven months later, I do not lose any tranny fluid and it shifts great! The stop leak is more expensive, but IMHO it is worth the cost.

Please rate my solution when you get a chance!

I have a honda passport (good condition) that has minor transmission fluid leak. It's hard to get the first gear going when it's cold and during stop and go situation...like stopping at traffic light!...

the transmission is probably going.You can try to take the bottom of the transmission pan off and change the fluid. add abottle of lucas transmission stop slip. also check the fluid and make sure there is some in there and it's at the proper level if not top it off and get the leak fixed. the fluid helps the gears so they dont clash together so hard and get a lot of matalic shavings in the trans the lower the fluid the more damage you do to the trans and the hotter your fluid gets and it burns up faster burnt fluid is the worst thing for your trans

How do i add fluid too the automatic transmission

Use a funnel and you add the fluid right thru the dipstick tube. Try not to overfill if you can this can cause the transmission to slip.
