How To Change Your Transmission Pan Gasket & Fluid 

Thank you for posting. Very thorough from start to finish.

Dripping sounded like rain! Awesome video👍👍

Cleaning the heads of the bolts...I wish I had your dedication.

for a car that is on the ground, you got some stellar shots. thank u for this, very educational and helpful

Just changed this on my Jeep. Thanks for the video.

Excellent. Clear to understand, great video shots, and informative to the point concerned. You are one of the few remaining people who clearly takes pride if your work and doing the job correctly using OEM torque specs. Excellent.

Awesome video! I’m checking out a Lancer that’s very pristine but there’s a minor leak from the transmission. So both the seller and I think, it may just be the pan and possibly the gasket too. So, I needed to find out how to do a lil work myself on this beaut ima hopefully buy come tomorrow or the day after. Thank you for your video!

Thanks helped out alot

Thanks for this video I have to do the same job..

Thanks for the info

Thank you! No extra b.s. hear yourself talk at the beginning!

Awesome job I’m doing the same one right now

If your transmission pan doesn't have a drain plug and you want one , you can get a universal transmission drain plug from TCI . I got the TCI 805800 and all you have to do is drill a half inch hole and install. Easy to do yourself I ordered mine from Jegs.

Thanks for the video man! Love your attention to detail. 😉👍🏻 did replacing the pan gasket take care of your leaking issue?

Would you use the neck that has the level stick to refill it from? Any air need to be purged after filling?

Thanks Lucas!!

I have a 1985 Ramcharger and I need to replace the gasket, but I don’t know my torque specs for the bolts. I don’t want to over tighten those bolts.

Good video

Awesome dude, I wish I had you in Atlanta to do this on my 89 Dodge d100 pickup. I need ya!

Why didnt you empty some fluid out of the cooler lines before removing the pan??

nice video i will change my gasket tomorrow wish me luck 😣☺️🖖

HELP!! guys, i bought my first automatic and its really tricky to read atf levels. I recently changed my atf and the levels read half full at the hot mark after replacing it and warming my car up and taking it out for a 30 min drive and now after a long drive the reading is like 1/2 of an inch over the hot mark. Shifting is fine and on the money, should i leave my fluids as is? Or should i go ahead and take some out?

These mechanics need a pat on the back for their calm talent

What type of vehicle was it

Did you use silicone?

No filter change?

My trans pan has 18 bolts and the owner's manual calls for a threadlocker. I purchased new bolts from the dealer cause the old ones are completely rusted. I thought the new bolts would come with a dry coat of blue threadlocker pre installed but they didn't. I have two options, loctite 248 stick or loctite 243 liquid. If i use the liquid form, isn't that going to go all over the place. I feel like the loctite would just leak down onto the gasket and ruin the seal. If I use the stick, I only have about 5 min fixture time. Would I even have enough time to hand tighten 18 bolts and then torque them to spec in a criss cross pattern. I read that if you hand tighten a bolt with loctite, it will immediately start to cure but if i then torque them 5 minutes later it could ruin the bond. I'm working with a floor jack in a tight space. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Is any adhesive or fluid necessary to properly apply the gasket... Or is it really that simple...just slap it on there and screw it on 🤔

having problems with 2005 Chevrolet Colorado transmission pan how to put it back on , can get it to fit. it is the same part number the transmission filter I put on cannot get the pan to fit on tried for an hour or more don't know what in the h e l l is this problem. I wouldn't say I'm a good mechanic but I'm we say I'm a fairly decent one.. I can't even imagine what it is and I figured some crazy stuff out before

I saw that you didn't use any kind of glue paste to the pan before placing the gasket. Is it necessary? I had mind done by a mechanic who comes to people's homes to do the jobs. My car is still leaking oil. I didn't see him setting the wrench to a particular pound amounts, as you did yours to 12 pounds. He also changed my regular motor oil gasket and the pan; he also used the glue paste, and it still leaks; he actually changed that motor oil pan and gasket 3 times, it still leaks, not as much, but still does from one of the corners. I don't want him to go through the same thing and change the transmission gasket several times. I'm just going to look for a different mechanic. It appears that he doesn't know what he's doing. I'm not a mechanic nor handy, but his results speak for themselves What do you think, or anybody else who is nice enough to read my post? Thank you all.Blessings.

Did you replace the fluid with the old oil? I’ve heard if you put new stuff in, it slips on an older car

My f250 the tranny fluid is leaking from the bolts?? All the sudden? Any ideas

How long after putting on the pan did you fill with trans oil

Dang I need to do this exact job on my 06 Ram 1500. I’ve got everything I need besides a torch wrench

Did you drive the csr. Is so what symptoms did u have

Why you did not drain the transmission first before trying to remove the sump?

What year make and model of the car?

how and from where do you re fill

Don't you use a gasket glue seal or spray can seal??

Bad ass man I'm about to do a client's dodge journey

So no adhesive needed?

Be cool if you put the type of transmission in the headline so it doesn't come up literally any time I look for any transmission pan gasket.

Did you have to remove the oil pan first?

How much tranny fluid did you buy

Luke, are you in Socal?

Toyota transmissions, thankfully, have a drain plug on the pan bottom as my '95 Corolla does.

Can you use it to paint inside of pan?

Why not drain it first then take the pan off?

Year of the car ? Model name ?

This has the same pan on a 2011 dodge journey

HELLO?? what kind of car is this????

Why didnt u drain it first

Next time use the pump from harbor freight that goes into the tranny dip stick to draw out most of the fluid. Less if a mess

Thank you for the video! It was very helpful. Also, just wanted to let you know you have a couple of typos in your video: the word "subscribe" at the beginning of the video is spelled "subscibe" (no "r") and "o-ring" in the title is spelled o ring (no dash). Just thought I'd let you know.

Did they forget to replace gasket when tranny was repaired…..😢

Talking too low dude...need volume uo

Where's the gasket maker???? SMDH #fail
