I have my Toyota Camry 1998 6/cya for 11 yrs. I haven't flushed transmission since I've had it. It has 282,650 miles and has a "hard engage" when I first put in reverse. Someone did add transmission fluid, (Lucas oil transmission fix) back last October, because it was low and leaking a little. Should I have transmission flushed? Or not. Sometimes, it shifts slow in drive through the other gears in cold weather. What should I do?
Answers from the Automotive Experts
May, On your 1998 Toyota Camry, A transmission service or a transmission flush (2 different types of services) are maintenance services and will not correct an internal transmission issue or correct a leak issue. The cause of the leak or transmission issue will need to be diagnosed for the correct repair. Transmission fix type liquids are not repairs. Good luck.Contribute to this question:
