This is my dads truck. 317,000 miles and once in drive the auto trans functions very well even with the high miles. No slip and shift quality is still good.
The bad is Sometimes it takes 15 to 20 min of Idling before it will go into drive if it has been sitting. I was told the seals in the valve body are worn out. Just for kicks I did a drain and fill with dexron 3 fluid yesterday and although I'm not a fan of additives I decided to try Lucas transmission fix. I know there is no magic snake oil that can repair broken parts but there is nothing to lose here. Can't tell a difference yet.
Anyone have good luck with Lucas Transmission fix?
Also this truck gets trans drain and fills around every 20k. It has since new.
