Will it help to add a second can of Trans Tune for hard shifting? [SOLVED]
I have a 2005 Impala with 82,500 miles on it. It shifts very hard into 1st gear when slowed to a stop or close to a stop. Also shudders pretty hard sometimes if it doesn’t drop into 1st on a take off but it works fine if I manually shift it. I put a can of Sea Foam Trans Tune in and it seemed to fix the problem or at least make it much better. Now about 2 weeks later it’s starting to do it again. Will it help to add another can of Trans Tune? There are no check engine or warning lights on.
Thanks for the question, Jeffrey.
Unfortunately, a second can of Trans Tune would not help. (Do not add more than one can to a transmission system at one time).
There’s a possibility that a new filter and pan gasket could help the problem (though without looking at the fluid condition and color personally I can’t say for sure).
I would recommend having the vehicle looked at by a transmission shop.
