63016 Platinum Universal ATF Protectant, 15 oz.

Lubegard is not a joke or scam. This product does what it is says. It extends transmission fluid life, smooths out harsh shifts and will eliminate torque converter shudder. Many people flat out neglect their transmissions. In some cases it can help those people too. It will not fix loss of a clutch plate or any other mechanical issue, but whatever the heck is in there most certainly improves the performance of your transmission. I add it with every fluid change and continue to enjoy a smooth shifting trans with no shudder.

Added a half of 10oz bottle to a Mercon LV (6f35 in a Ford Fusion 2012) after couple drain and fills. Previous owner never did transmission service up until 110k miles when I bought it from him, when I drained transmission fluid, it was darker then black. Only after 5 drain and fills with Motorcraft Mercon LV (each one was 4qt+), fluid became looking somewhat acceptable. Damage was already done to a transmission and shifting, even with proper fluid level, was erratic and rough (still was shifting into all 6 gears but with hesitation and a terrible rev hanging). I tried BG ATF Plus before, but ultimately was not satisfied with results and did drain and fill procedure 2 more times and was about to accept the defeat but found out on a some forums that people had some luck with Lubegard Platinum and decided to try it since it compatible with Mercon LV. Maybe this is just a placebo effect but with Lubegard in at least my car doesn't jerk every time when shifting and now somewhat nice at times, whining transmission noise became less noisy and maybe it will buy me some time before I need a new transmission

2013 F150 Crew 3.5 Ecoboost 270k miles - mmm orig engine and trans. Maintenance is key. 5k oil changes and transmission and coolant drain and fill every 25k miles and these trucks last forever! Having used the red bottle on corvettes and older 5.4/6.2 F250/F350s i know this is a quality product, the Platinum is NOT available anywhere locally - in fact i didnt know it existed until YouTube. Several 09-14 F150 6 speed trans owners report remarkable results w the 6 speed shift smoothness after use. I had the 19mm plug pulled out of the upper pan mount and noted perfectly appearing fluid no discoloration or burnt smell. Added Platinum solely as a future preventative measure prior to a 1300 mile trip. Figured if it does do anything for an otherwise normal transmission ill surely find out after driving 1300 miles. Results: i noticed after about 400 miles of 80+ mph driving that shifting, while computer controlled, seemed a bit firmer and significantly faster. Prior to the addition of this product i also reset the transmission learned adaptations as well as all saved shift modes and all learned modes and driving styles. That makes an immediate and noticeable difference in shift points and especially torque converter lockup points and changes tow/haul mode behavior. Again YMMV and while i do notice a very mild but good improvement in a 260k++ mile transmission, since using this ive had a couple "hiccups" with 1-2 shifts that are concerning. One occasion in a parking lot at low speed the 1-2 shift was so harsh i thought something in the rear axle broke. It also did that once on a low speed turn a few days prior.It did not throw a code though and i do have the lead frame recall transmission -.recall has been done 8 years ago. Nothing but 25k fluid/filtet changes since. I recommend Platinum for all Ford 6 and 10 speed transmissions and especially the 4R100/5R100 seem to love 2 bottles of this fluid.

Helped the Ford Ranger 5th gen transmission shift better but short of a stick of dynamite nothing will fix a Ford.

Best additive I've ever used, I don't use anything else in my trans or engine, but this eliminated hard shifting.

Good product so far, pour into truck and drove couple hundred miles. Definitely worth the money.

It took about a month of driving and now it is shifting smooth.

I have a GMC 2018 Denali with a 6.2 engine and 8-speed transmission. At about 45,000 to 50,000 miles, I started getting this shutter when leaving stop signs in traffic lights. Also, it started bucking between gears. At first, I thought it was the road, but one day I had to give my wife a ride to her appointment, and she says to me, "what the hell is wrong with your truck?" Lol, she has always had problems expressing her thoughts. That's when I realized that it was the truck and not the road. I called a GM dealership and they had a technical bulletin that suggested flushing the transmission fluid and adding a new transmission fluid that should fix the problem. And it did for about 10,000 mi. About 3 months ago, it came back with a vengeance. A stronger shutter and bucking between gears. Especially when slowing down. I had known about lubeguard, but I thought it was probably just a gimmick. I have a very busy job and it's hard for me to get my truck to the dealership. I called them first and for some reason, they didn't have any information about the flush that they did. I knew it was going to be a hassle. So I read a little bit more about this lubguard and decided to order 2x20 oz bottles. 40 oz As recommended. I also ordered a cheap pump. If your like me and put things off because, well because. Let me tell you what I did. Pulled my truck into the garage, I got a 10 mm wrench, ratchet with 10 mm socket and a pair of needle nose pliers. In order to add this fluid you have to get to the fill plug which is behind the heat shield. You only need to take off the front top bolt and front side bolt. After that, you can pull the shield down exposing the fill cap. Next, I couldn't figure out how to make sure that I only took about 40 oz of transmission fluid out of my truck. I decided to just get a Tupperware bowl and pour one of the lube guard bottles into it. I took that empty bottle with me under the truck. I loosened the drain bolt, positioned my drain pan, and quickly caught the oil with the bottle after removing the bolt. I filled The bottle to the same point as where the LG oil was. I put the drain screw back in, dumped out the fluid into the drain pan, and then undid the screw and caught another 20 oz. After that, I put the screw back in cleaned up any oil, and slid the pan out of my way. I used a rag to clean all around the fill cap before removing it. I didn't want any debris falling inside. After that, I sliped my arm around the exhaust pipe with a pair of needle nose pliers. After a few attempts, I was finally able to remove the fill cap. Went to the front of the truck and pop the hood. I grabbed my new pump and slid the drain side hose down through the engine compartment, close to where the fill cap was. Went back under the truck and placed it inside the fill cap hole. Went back to the front of the truck and put the suction hose inside the Tupperware that I use to hold the first bottle of oil. Turned it on and sucked all the oil out of that. When it was done, I shut the pump off checked underneath the truck to make sure there was nothing spilling. I grabbed the next bottle and pump that one in. After I finished, I cleaned up any oil that may have spilled around the engine compartment. Which really wasn't any. Went back underneath and took the drain hose out of The fill cap hole. Cleaned the fill cap and pushed it back in. Bolted the heat shield back into place and wipe down any wet areas. Clean up the tools, wrapped up the hoses and put everything away. I started the truck and hoped for the best. Now this is only a day but I am not kidding, 95% BETTER. I was shocked, It was better right away. I cannot predict how it will be down the road, but I did read a lot of forms about people that did this and some claim to be over 40,000 mi since adding lubeguard, and still have not had a problem. All I can say is, as of right now, awesome!
