The disadvantages of adding Additives to your ATF

This is basically a reprint or just a way to let you know the disadvantages of adding Additives to your ATF fluid Automatic Transmission Fluid Additives this is a link to a TBS about the issues.

OBJECTIVE:
Alert customers of the ineffectiveness and potential damaging effects caused by typical ATF additives when used with well-formulated automatic transmission fluids.

ISSUES:
ATF additives can alter a well-formulated automatic transmission fluid’s properties, causing degraded low temperature performance, premature wear, corrosion and shudder problems.

Conclusion
RECOMMENDATION:
AMSOIL INC. recommends against the use of ATF additives as they may cause a reduction in performance, protection and longevity of equipment, and can ultimately cause permanent damage to a vehicle’s transmission. The use of any aftermarket ATF additive will void the AMSOIL Limited Warranty.
