Best Answer

A minor slip or occasional slip can either be reduced or eliminated by purchasing a bottle of 'LUCAS' brand transmission slip reducer. The reason transmissions may slip is because a small piece of grit, metal, sand, etc....has entered inside the case where the sensitive gears are working. This 'thunk' or 'clank' happens when the transmission gears (arms / rods) get stuck then slip loose. Thus...you hear the clunking sound when they break free from the bind the foreign object has caused.

LUCAS helps to keep things slippery. Its about $11-$14 in most auto parts stores. They make a myriad of other wonderful products for your car and I've used 3 of them and have improved both performance and gas mileage both.
