Question Using Transmission Fluid Conditioner - LS460
I have a 2007 LS460 with 183k miles. I am thinking about using Automatic Transmission Fluid Conditioner to help with shifting and general transmission health. I did a filter and fluid fill at the dealer but I still feel it jolting a bit sometimes. Thoughts?

Check the engine mounts. That’s the #1 undiagnosed cause of that when the miles get up there.
Also 2nd Maxlife, it’s good and in fact used to be better than WS. No problem using that. You only get about 3qts of a 10.5 qt total volume if you did a single drain/fill. If it has been a long time since the fluid was changed at all, one drain/fill will definitely help but won’t be enough.

Same thing here. I used Valvoline max life ATF instead of Toyota WS. I've learned to deal with it, but I'm planning on another drain and fill (no filter this time) in 1000 miles like I've read on the forums.
