  1. Excellent! I am like you, not mechanically inclined either and found this thread by accident also. As you can see by my prior posts it's been about 3 months since I added Trans-X, I've driven about 1500 miles in that time and Trans-X continues to work like a champ. Delayed forward engagement is basically gone, trans also seems to shift much smoother. Hasn't slipped out of drive once since adding.
  2. Hi Rooster2 Perhaps I should have been clearer in my post. The beginning of this user's post is my exact problem also....Although he claims he didn't have any delayed engagement from P - D. I had a 3-4 second delay in N, R, or P to D, but I also had the above problem occasionally...it would feel like it would slip out of D at a red light or stop sign, then when you hit the gas it would engage in D kind of hard... It didn't happen very often, but just enough to be worried about. Since I added the Trans-X the delayed engagement to D is down to 1-2 seconds and I haven't had a slippage out of D and a red light....but I don't know if that is just coincidence because it didn't happen that often to begin with. I don't drive the car a lot (over the last year of ownership about 7K miles) so I guess only time will tell if Trans-X fixed that also. Thanks
  3. Hello everyone Another satisfied Trans-X customer here, at least so far... Have a 2000 Subaru Legacy OBW that I bought last Fall '13 with 120K. When I purchased the car didn't seem to notice the delayed engagement problem at first, but by last Spring definitely got worse. Usually had a 3-4 sec delay in engagement from R - D or N - D. That was tolerable, but recently it also occasionally slipped out of D at a idle. Started doing research on it and found this thread. Drained ATF just once (the ATF that was in there didn't look too old so prior owner must have changed it somewhat recently), added Trans-X and about 4Q ATF. Immediate notice a difference after just driving a few minutes. It's only been 2 weeks and probably 200 miles but the delayed engagement is down to 1-2 sec and haven't seen it slip once out of D at an idle. I will update this thread if I notice any problems but so far so good! Thanks to Rooster2 and everyone else's input! Rob
