  1. I now have nearly 10,000 miles on transmission since I added the Trans-X. Transmission still performing flawlessly. Thanks to this forum, so far I believed the use of this Trans-X additive saved me thousands of dollars. I will periodically keep you all posted how things are working, as I put mileage on the car.
  2. 1600 miles since I added the Trans-X. Transmission still performing normally. ("knock on wood") I hope it stays fixed. I plan to follow Subaru's maintenance schedule, and have transmission fluid changed every 30,000 miles. At each Transmission fluid change you can bet I will always add a can of the K&W Trans-X. I hope folks with this same problem, find and read this thread so they can potentially save themselves big money on a transmission replacement or rebuild. I still cannot believe Subaru will not acknowledge this problem, and this Trans-X additive seems to work for every one who uses it. Some folks reporting that they have driven nearly 100,000 miles since they added the Trans-X, and transmission still performing normally. I have reported this additive finding to my local Subaru Dealer, and they cannot believe it. I will keep you all posted from time to time, and let you know how the transmission is working.
  3. Hello, I am new to this forum. I bought a 1999 Legacy Outback wagon in September of 2008 as a work car for commuting 75 miles one way to work. I live in Pennsylvania where the winter roadways can often be challenging. I bought the car with this known trans problem. I had Trans fluid changed, and external filter replaced by Subaru dealer. Problem still existed. I spoke with dealer who said trans needs replaced, but a Subaru dealer in Moosic, PA (Minooka Subaru) will remove, rebuild, and re-install trans for approx. $2K. The Subaru dealer states that the "D" seal inside the trans is worn and fluid leaking by it, thus forward engagement is delayed. I need to rev. engine sometimes to 2500 rpm to engage. I was afraid of breaking the input shaft. I am glad I found this forum, and have been watching it for months now. I am usually skeptical about additives for anything to fix a problem, but saw the success of all those in this forum with the K&W Trans-X. With nothing to lose but $6.00 from the local Autozone store, I put it in several days and about 250 miles ago. Problem FIXED!!! I will keep all of you posted as to how this works over time. Thank you to all of you, I just may have saved thousands of dollars, for the time being anyway. Just for the record, I contacted Subaru of America with this problem, and they denied knowing of any transmission issue like this, and basically told me it was my problem, and they could not help with paying for the repair. "Kudos" to the makers of the K&W Trans_X additive.
