Other transmission oil additives say they can help prevent transmission overheating and premature oxidation of the Automatic Transmission Fluid (ATF). Does TransTune do this also?
At Sea Foam, we trust that the auto manufacturer’s engineers knew what they were doing when they selected a specific Automatic Transmission Fluid (ATF) for their transmission. If there was a need to address problems with chronic overheating, they would have engineered the transmission differently, or installed a more heavy-duty transmission in the vehicle. Virtually all transmission manufacturers state that these types of ATF additives should NOT be used. Premature oxidation of ATF is brought about by excessive and extended overheating, which is usually caused by exceeding the transmission manufacturer’s operational recommendations, such as towing loads exceeding recommended limits, or towing in an extremely hot climate for extended periods. Adding a product that is designed to overcome the effects of exceeding a transmission’s operational limits is inadvisable, and gives a false sense of protection. TransTune is not a “performance enhancer” ATF additive. TransTune was designed primari
