Decided to see if this $12 bottle of ATF additive could help at all with my "Tip-tragic" 5 speed auto in my '03 VW W8. I hate sealed transmissions...but with that said, not too bad to add it with a Harbor Freight fluid pump into the fill port. I'll give it a few '00 miles and weigh in on any benefits. Fluid is somewhat fresh as the tranny was serviced shortly after purchase about 2 years ago and has about 12K on the fluid/filter now. It has a hiccup in third gear that drives me nuts and was curious if this would help at all....probably just need to do a 3x drain/fill as much of a PITA that is.
