Question 1

Do I add to transmission fluid when doing an atf fluid chsnge? Or do you add tobtransmission directly??

Accepted Answer

OK in this case it all depends.  So if you have not changed your transmission fluid in 35,000 to 40,000 miles you should drain your fluid and add new fluid and then add the Liquid Moly.  Note if you do the drain yourself only 1/2 of the fluid will drain out as there will be 50% of the fluid in your torque converter, and to drain this out you would add new fluid back to the transmission drive it for a few miles and then drain it again and re-add thus most of the old fluid will be removed. Note never overfill you transmission fluid so say the Liquid Moly is 160z half a quart you would need to put have a quart "less" of transmission fluid again NEVER over fill.  If you don't drain the fluid yourself and take it to the shop they will know what to do.  So change yourself see above, add yourself to existing fluid drain 16 oz and then add Liquid Moly. NOTE never add the this additive to a CVS transmission I.E. Nissan-Infiniti or again ANY car that is a CVS transmission!!!!  Hope this helps.

Question 2

The bottle said that it works for type ii and iii atf.  would that work for 2002-2006 toyota camry as it uses type iv atf?

Here is the info around ATF 4 vs ATF 3.

+4 is now the recommended fluid. +3 came up to 00. The transmission isn't going to self destruct if it has +3 in it. +4 was designed to perform better over a longer peroid. From allpar:

+4 is now the recommended fluid. . The transmission isn't going to self destruct if it has +3 in it. +4 was designed to perform better over a longer period of time.

The goal in developing ATF+4 was to create a fluid that would match the performance characteristics of the current fluid, but would retain those characteristics for at least 100,000 miles. Research papers specifically note that the anti-shudder properties of ATF+3 are usually degraded enough by 30,000 miles to cause noticeable shudder. So basically ATF +4 will work with this product as ATF+3 and ATF+4 are basically the same except ATF+4 lasts longer.  Note if you are using this product and you have not changed your transmission fluid in a long time say 50,000 miles or so you should do so as this product works better when you have new-clean transmission fluid.

Question 3
