Default Re: Auto transmission

I have uploaded some attachments, one is just the transmission with the pan and filter removed

I have another with the valve body underside facing up on the bench. In this one I highlighted the pressure control solenoid in red. The other solenoids are highlighted in green.


There are quite a few bolts that hold the valve body to the base of the transmission. Most of them are short and only a few are long. Just make a note of it as you remove each one. They all use torx heads. You can see this in the photo "filter_removed".


We used a scewer to flick the electrical connector clips off the solenoids without breaking them. To remove the solenoid, there is just one screw holding each one in. Make sure you take a photo of the positioning of the solenoids before you remove them which makes it easy to re-install them without the worry of them binding on anything later

I also provided a photo of the valve body from the top where you can only see the pressure control solenoid


For interest's sake, I also provided a photo of the transmission with the valve body removed.


Lastly, after cleaning the pan, I installed two additional magnets which I highlighted in red. The green one is the original. I got these from Altronics


I bought the filter and gasket kits from REPCO.

I bought the solenoids from an Australian company which I found online. I can lookup their name again if you need it.

Remember to be very clean with everything and take lots of photos just in case you need to refer back to them. I did this work in a pit with my brother. Another pair of hands makes the work quicker but I could have done it on my own. Much easier to have someone along when you are pouring the fluid back in
