Changing the Transmission Fluid and Filter on a Full Size Rear Wheel Drive GM

1. What’s the part number on that filter

2. Eric, you make good videos but I don't subscribe because Microsoft says that I don't have any room for anything and I don't know how to fix it. Microsoft continually interupts everything to tell me that I need more room. but not how to fix it. Make a video of that.

3. drive the vehicle up on a couple of 2 by 4s and you will have more room. Also the turbo 350 had a square pan and the 400 had a oblone pan.

4. That was a reusable gasket😱😱.. a good one too 😫😫

5. Thanks Eric, you know your shit mate.
   👊🗡😎🍻👍

6. Nice job!

7. Thank you your videos are great i have a. Chevy express 1500 im assuming its the same, i just bought it its an 01 used so i need to do both an oil change and trans fluid, thanks again!

8. Freakin 6 cylinder chevy uplander takes 6.7 quarts hog it's probably not the way to do it but I just tighten those pan bolts until just before they start to squeeze the gasket I used to live on a dirt road and they had a nasty habit of vibrating loose

9. RTV takes too long to harden. Also it is best to clean out the pan while it is off.

10. Why didn’t you clean the inside of the pan

11. I have a Dodge 360 minivan motorhome that the transmission is slipping and smoking with a clogged filter to that

12. Thanks very much .. great video Eric …. step-by-step … only thing … support the rear wheel ..

13. Que paso amigo eric great videos excellent job👍

14. didn't clean pan out good i see and i always change seal for filter

15. lovable dork…haha

16. Chrysler made vehicles require atf+4, you absolutely CAN NOT use anything else.

17. Should have inspected the old gasket + reused it if it was still good. GM put them in so that it was used multiple times. The original gasket cost around $30. Not to be thrown away willy nilly.

19. Oh at about 440 minute i think music started playing in the back ground.. well at 5am here i have 3 different phone alarms that start going off… so i started digging around to find them. at some point the music stopped so i figured id dissmissed the alarm when id picked them up.. so that solved i restarted the video back a bit to watch the part id missed chasing alarms and damned if it did not start going off again!!! But after some confusion and trouble shooting I discovered the sound was actually on your video and not any of my alarms lol!

20. Im doing this right now,,, well actually I started off planning to slide the trans back to check and replace a probable broken flexplate but draining the trans and a new filter was in the mix… its a 99 gmc suburban with a 4L60e 16 bolt trans but looks very much the same… I had a hard time getting the pan actually out of there and it was not that gear selector linkage which i did not remove that was the problem…. But I did get it off by the use of much fowl language. But getting it back on that did not work as it must have grown immune in the mean time. I finally pulled out the book after failing and discovered that it says you must unbolt the trans mount from the crossmember and prop it up with a piece of wood to get the pan off or on… yeah im sure that is true as that is what i had the problem with… like everyone else i agree about cleaning the pan. when I cleaned mine I found fellerouts in it,, which turned out to be needle bearings which explained a few symptoms that i could not explain before and now im pulling the trans all the way out and will probably find a different one to put in it…

21. Torque wrenches arw for morons.. real mechanics know how to torque

22. I'm constantly amazed at the lack of drain bolts for automatic transmissions.

23. Hi! so. my chevy suburban 1994 was almost out of oil and wouldnt go in reverse. I changed the filter, oil and gasket. ran through the gears and reverse was bac. i drove it for maybe 15min then it started to not want to gear over 1st gear, but i stil had reverse. got to the garage again i 1st gear and suddenlty i didnt have 1gear either. ive tried almost 3 hours now and i just have reverse. somebody here got tips? 🙂

24. Eric, I have a 4L60E transmission…. Getting a check engine code of PO758 (Shift Solenoid B Electrical) I dropped the pan, Fluid was bright red, no debris in the pan or on the magnet… I replaced shift solenoids A & B. Tested the connectors with my power probe and was told that I should read ground on both terminals on both connectors (they only read ground on one side of each connector). I bench tested the solenoids with a 9V battery and both old worked correctly. I bench tested both new solenoids and they both worked correctly. Since I purchased new, I installed them. new filter, reinstalled pan, filled with fluid and then test drive. Shife from 1-2, 2-3, 3-4, check engine light comes on and transmission shifts to 3rd as i lost 1st and 4th gears… I had a new transmission harness in stock for another transmission rebuild and I plugged it into the truck harness. I only had grounds on one side of the solenoid connectors, so I assume that the internal harness is good. I am at a wall, any suggestions on what could be wrong??? Thank you for your help!!!!!
