Own a Honda ST1300 motorcylce and put in AMSOIL this summer and was amazed at the improvment in the smoothness of the shift. Really had no idea oil could make that dramatic of a difference.

My 2000 Tundra with 61,000 has shifted rough since I bought it two years ago. So I bit the bullet and put in AMSOIL ATF fluid and I have to say I am having the same experiecne. My Tundra shifts so much better. Needless to say, I am completly sold on this product. It's not cheap, but for me, it is absolutley worth it.

Very similar experience with Amsoil ATF. Rough shift on my Tundra developed after about 50-60K miles on new tranny, changed out with Regular ATF. No luck, changed to Amsoil ATF after getting a VERY good price abt 10K miles later, no more rough shifting. Truck has 125K on it now and never redeveloped the rough shift again.

People will tell you that Amsoil could not make a difference, I am sold too. I say let them use the $.50/quart garbage oils. My Tundra has 125K on it, all very hard miles-wheeling, snow, WOT, etc and it still hums like a new engine. I am convinved that Amsoil is the difference. This Tundra has given me as many miles as my last TWO fords which were run on Mobil 1...Then again, they were Fords...

Big "Ditto" on the Amsoil ATF. Had them change over to it when they rebuilt my trans. I love the way it shifts now.

if you guys are refering to "great shifts" when you mean softer shifts then i dont know how great this is.
If you went from harsher to the softer shifting you are getting clutch slip IMHO.
with slipage you will increase heat,possible clutch debris, and maybe even shorten the life of the clutch packs. I may be wrong but i went in the opposite direction just to prolong the life of the tranny under increased power application-firmer shifts give less heat and longer clutch pack life.

hope im wrong on this one.

Understand what you mean. I guess I do not pull much with my Tundra and when i do it shifts beautifully. Without a load, it seemed abnormally abrubt. Now it feels more "normal". Understand there is more slippage involved but I do not expect that it is unreasonabley more.

Oh yeah, I most certianly agree with you! And my truck shifts much firmer since the rebuild. The guy who built it said he did not modify anything, just "updated parts", so the only thing I can contribute my improved crisp shifts is to the Amsoil.
