Designed for professional and DIY use, the formula is engineered to address common driveability issues like shudder, slipping and noise while protecting internal parts from heat and wear. It supplements depleted additive packages in factory-fill ATF and can convert compatible fluids into types used by several manufacturers without replacing the entire fluid.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does this product convert regular ATF into OEM-style ATF?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe formula supplements and modifies the friction characteristics of compatible Dexron\/Mercon fluids so they perform like many dealer-specified ATFs. It does this by adding friction modifiers and stabilizers that re-create the lockup and shift feel of OEM fluids.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eContains LXE\/Synergol TMS technology to tighten shift cycles and maintain lockup friction.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDesigned to convert fluids to match Honda, Toyota, Mopar and other OEM types when used per the conversion chart.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eUsed by professional technicians and referenced in manufacturer technical bulletins.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat improvements should I expect after adding Lubegard Platinum ATF Protectant?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUsers typically notice quicker, more positive shifts and reduced transmission shudder and noise.
