    So I recently bought a WIX transmission filter because I'm planning on changing the fluid and filter on Friday. I know my transmission already has a shudder issue only going from 1st to 2nd at high RPM and when the transmission is warm, but it hasn't done it recently. I just went to go check the fluid and found this:





    Yeah, basically black. Now I was recommended by a member on here about a product to add that will prevent slippage and shudders. This is what that product is: http://www.lubegard.com/~/C-230/Instant+Shudder+Fixx. I will be buying one of those, but after seeing how black my fluid was with clutch material, I'm having second thoughts about it. It's only gonna be a pan drop so it's not like all that fluid is gonna come out. But I don't know, is there anything else I should add in addition to the Lubegard product to prevent and slipping? If my transmission slips after this, it's bye bye to the top swap project. Thanks a bunch guys.
