Slipping clutch and Lucas oil? Options

[reko]

I was thinking about this... Lucas oil makes a liquid for the tranny / clutch to stop slipping right?

So if mine slips once in a while, how about flushing and replacing the clutch fluid and add some of it ?

Would that help? Anyone tried?

If your clutch is slipping thats means its time to replace your clutch.

thats what i was gonna say. almost sounds like he has a auto though cause he's talking about slipping unless his manual trans is popping out of gear.

i've never used the lucas trans additive, but if you do have a auto trans that is slipping, its more than likely the clutch pack materials are breaking down and a fluid flush isn't really gonna stop the slipping all together. you may be close to needing the trans overhauled. another question is how many miles do you have on the transmission and how often have you had the trans fluid flushed? if its been a long time since the last fluid flush (80k + miles), and if its an auto, i'd look into just doing the rebuild since the detergents in the new auto trans fluids will more than likely cause leaks. hope this helps in some way.
