![]() Also, I have noticed when switching on OD the shift from 3rd to OD is quicker when the fluid is cold with the hy-gard vs cold std trans fluid. I have noticed the clutch in the converter locks up harder when the fluid is colder than when I ran the trans with the standard trans fluid being cold.
