2006 Chevy Uplander. Transmission slipping in low gear. Most noticeable when coming to a stop and starting again. Not recommended to pull out into traffic because you don't know if you are going to move or not. Also noticeable when going from reverse to drive. Happens at least once or twice a day for the last week now. Dumped some lucas transmission treatment into it the other day, seems to be better for the time being. Also drivers rear sliding door is wacked. Just gave up on it.
