The Amsoil Universal ATF (meets or exceeds ATF+4 requirements)
does not need friction modifiers on the 42/44/46RE trannies. I've had
it in my tranny since the beginning of '00 and no problems on street or
strip. I can't speak for the 45RFE as I do not know what is needed in it.
If the manual says it needs ATF+4 then the Amsoil Universal ATF
should be sufficient by itself.
