Default Lubegard - Tranmission Treatment?

Im wondering if anyone has used this or have any thoughts on using it.

I have a 01 Monte Carlo ss with 200,000 miles on it.
I have a torque converter problem.. when shifting from 1st to second and second to third my car will shift hard if i accelerate (more noticeable from 1st to second gear) but if i let off the gas right when its about to shift it will ease into gear and be fine. Also, when im slowing down to stop or turn but don't come to a complete stop and then get on the gas i have shutter at low speeds (gears) that will go away if i give it more gas. Hope i explained this well enough..
I dont have much knowledge when it comes to trans lol.

Thanks for any help.

Hi, what ever you do with a fluid conditioner will only be a bandaid as you know. Yet sometimes thats all one is able to do. My 99 S-10 has gone for I bet 20,000 miles with a bad tranny (VERY hard shifting) and it is still running. I add "Lucas Transmission Fix" to the existing fluid and the hard shifts go away. Works about 5,000 mile, extract some fluid and then add more of the tranny fix, LOL, gets me by on my cheap truck, not worth a $2000 transmission fix. But hey no lie, it works pretty darn good..... Good luck
