I've seen passing mention of this product, and I'm considering using it. The reason is that we nought a '95 Camry four wagon last Fall that was somewhat neglected: it appears that the transmission flush it got last year was the only fluid change in almost 50k miles and many years. We had one drain & fill done last Winter, but the transmission still hesitates before going into gear when cold - especially into reverse. It is also reluctant to upshift into fourth when accelerating, unless we back off the throttle slightly. In about 75% of driving situations the cars acts fine - it's the other 25% I'm worried about, along with the life expectancy of this transmission. The car has 109k miles on it, is in very good shape otherwise, and seems to have plenty of line pressure and friction material left, going by the strong upshifts. I'd like to solve the problem, and I'm hoping the Lucas product can help. What are the risks, and how likely is it to help these symptoms...?
