Only put it in two days ago, but what a DIFFERENCE! After owning a 2005 PT Cruiser Limited for 11 years, it was deemed totaled when someone carelessly pulled right out in front of me across two lanes of traffic. There was no way I could stop my vehicle, and my dearly beloved car was considered a total loss. It never had any transmission issues, so I had no need to use this product. Show About a month ago, I bought a "new" PT Cruiser Limited Edition. It is a 2001, and has a bit over 100,000 miles on it. I was leery to get a car with that many miles, but it looks like someone took good care of it. When I test-drove it, I noticed it had quite a "shudder" when shifting from 1st to 2nd gear. It also shuddered a bit when braking. Heard a bit of rumbling, and noticed that it did not drive smoothly, as my other PT Cruiser had. I decided to get it anyway, as it was the right price, and looks great. After driving it for a couple of weeks, I decided to try to do something about the shudder. I took it to our mechanic for an oil change and general inspection. He took care of some minor issues, and told me that it was going to need transmission help sometime in the future. He said that I could probably delay transmission work, if I drove it "like a little old granny". I did not intend to drive it harshly, anyway, but noted his advice and have been driving it very, very gently. Despite that, the shudder when going from 1st to 2nd, persisted, and I noticed it struggled a bit when shifting into a higher gear. Rather than plunge into a transmission fix, as I only drive a few miles going from home to our business, I ordered two tubes of the Lubegard 19610 Dr. Tranny Instant Shudder Fixx. They arrived promptly, and I put both of them in two days ago. The first day, I did not notice any difference. The SECOND day, I felt like I had a new transmission. The car drives smoothly, does not shudder, and shifting is gentle and barely noticeable. Hard to believe that something in a little tube could make that much difference, but it HAS! I am a believer, and it only took two tiny inexpensive tubes to occasion the change. I am very, very impressed! Note: It is too soon to tell, but it sounds like the rumbling has died down, and my gas gauge has not moved much. In the month that I have owned the vehicle, I have put 3 tanks of gas in it. Since I put the Tranny Instant Shudder Fixx in, the gas gauge has stayed fairly steady. There may be no connection, but it appears that my gas mileage will be better, too. UPDATE: Roughly three weeks later - The problem I was having did not go away completely, so I ordered a syringe of XADO Revitalizant EX120. It took a couple of weeks, but now, shifting is MUCH smoother than it has been since I bought the car July 9th. As a side benefit, the gas mileage IS a lot better, as I mentioned earlier that I suspected it might be. Planning on adding another syringe of XADO soon. Cannot say with certainty which product made the difference, but my vehicle is a lot more pleasurable to drive! UPDATE: October, 2019 - Well, my 2001 PT Cruiser started a few months ago really "bucking" and "grabbing" when I applied the brakes. Replaced the motor mounts, and then the tranny mount. Made no difference, and the two mechanics I dealt with - both personally known to me - thought I needed a new transmission. THAT will be an expense that I would like to prolong for a while. So... I decided to put two tubes of the Lubeguard Instant Shudder Fix into the transmission. Drove it around town for days, and noticed no improvement. THEN, I had to go somewhere that was an hour and half away. It only shuddered badly once on the trip, and in the two days since I have been back - it has not "grabbed" once! I am very hopeful that it will take care of the issue, at least for awhile, as I happen to really love my 2001 PT Cruiser Limited Turbo car! Not sure why these little tubes make any difference at all, but they do!
