Removal

NOTICE: Do not use any supplemental transmission fluid additives or cleaning agents. The use of these products could cause internal transmission components to fail; this will effect the operation of the transmission.
Use of a transmission fluid other than specified could result in transmission failure.

NOTE: Normal maintenance requires periodic transmission fluid changes. If a major repair, such as a clutch, band or bearing is required, the automatic transmission will need to be removed for repair. The transmission fluid needs to be changed if evidence of transmission fluid contamination is found.

1. With the vehicle in NEUTRAL, position it on a hoist.

2. Loosen the transmission fluid pan bolts and allow transmission fluid to drain. After the transmission fluid is drained, remove the bolts. Remove the transmission fluid pan and transmission fluid pan gasket.





3. Pull down evenly and remove the transmission fluid filter and seal.





4. Clean and inspect the transmission fluid pan, gasket and magnet.





Installation

1. NOTICE: If installing a new transmission fluid filter and the seal remains in the main control bore, carefully use a small screwdriver to remove the seal. Use care not to damage the main control bore.

Install a new transmission fluid filter and seal as required.






2. Position the transmission fluid pan magnet into the transmission fluid pan.





3. NOTE: The transmission fluid pan gasket is reusable. Clean and inspect for damage; if not damaged, the transmission fluid pan gasket should be reused.
