Transmission shudder advice

2539 Views 44 Replies 16 Participants Last post by  lakes73
So I got the infamous shudder and quickly panicked and took it for a wheel balance hoping for the best.. still a shudder so I take it for a transmission fluid change shop calls and they tell me bad internal transmission so then I start really freaking out until I read more into it.. so I’m thinking to just go for a transmission flush and hope that solves it all. What would you guys recommend?

p.s I just hit 223k miles

I had the shudder, and had it flushed, no help. I added 4 oz. of Dr.Tranny and it hasn't come back in 12K miles.

It is good to known. Thank You


Well I ordered the Lubeguard Shudderfixx and received (6) 2 oz tubes and no instructions. I am assuming to add one tube drive for a week or so and add until it is resolved.
I put in 2 tubes (4oz.) in January 2022 and problem is gone for over a year. The fill plug is not easy to find but I was pleasantly surprised that it came right out. I used a big syringe like tool, from amazon, to insert it.
