Robby1870 Posted January 27, 2004 Report Share Posted January 27, 2004 If you wanna change the fluid, just drop the pan. You'll get about 1/2 of the fluid changed. If you are really interested in getting a lot of it changed, drop the pan again about 500 miles after the 1st time. But really, its not worth it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan94Z34 Posted January 28, 2004 Report Share Posted January 28, 2004 what car are we talking about there. I know the tranny's that were the 3100's have a transmission delay problem. It was due to the valves in the valve body letting pressure by until it warmed up, and expanded causing the leek to be sealed. The only fix is a new valve body. Not cheep.
