Excellent series. Really felt for you when your glasses dropped off when you were wresting with the pinch clamp. I know the feeling. Thanks especially for the test of clutch apply pistons. I think that was on your Impala video. I was wondering how to test the seals after reassembly. Someone buy that man a new floor jack!
You sir are a good man... you ate saving me 500 bucks from the shop... I will be doing this on a 2000 Buick lesabre 4t65e trans... I wonder if it will have the other obstacles that you ran across
Great video & great work you deserve a ASC certification!!!!! Great series very informative now I know what I’m in for,Wish you mentioned your tork specs? Thx for your hard work
Great video series much appreciated. Quick question. Is it hard on the transmission if you let the PCS shift hard from 1st to 2nd and 2nd to 3rd for an extended amount of time? I replaced the PCS at 75,000 and now at 150,000 it is doing it again and don' t really want to mess with it. Thanks in advance!!
Very good video , ! If you can remember ,can you tell me the list of tools il need to do this job ? Ex . what size torx wrench etc , any specialty tool etc . Did you hold engine up from top ? Thanks
Awesome job man! My friends doing this to my 2003 lesabre. In ur opinion, is it necessary to replace the tcc solenoid for a p1811 code? The tcc I ordered wont be here until Saturday and I dont feel like waiting. What do u think? I'm replacing shift solenoids, pressure control solenoid, module, harness, side case gasket, trans filter and fluid. I didn't have a dash light on but they did pull that code. I'm getting the 1st into 2nd and second into 3rd trans jerk. Only happens when the car warms up a bit. Started doing this just a few day's ago. Thanks much! Great job!
I need to replace my steering rack but your struggles with the steering shaft has me reluctant to take it on. How do you know when you have it reconnected correctly ?
I have an 04 Monterey Carlo that when you first get in it takes a min or so to go into gear but then works fine. Do you think this job would fix that problem?
Bought a grand prix 02 from my cuz for low price with sel on code p0442 (needs gas cap). Barely today at work i pluged in a genesis n pulled the p1811 code which doesn't come up on global, only in manufacturer mode. so i only felt a hard shift once since i got it after a very long drive, got back, checked trans fluid it was low and dirty, so i evaced the fluid out through the dipstick tube n put new dexron 3 in never got that hard shift again. But now I'm concerned bout the code. Tomorrow I'm going to clear the code and hope it doesn't come back. i do know the trans cooler lines are leaking so I'm going to change those as well as the filter and fluid again soon. Thanks to this video i know how to get to the solenoids if i have to and it doesn't seem hard at all. Also do you think it'll pass emissions with just the p1811code?
what other parts would you recommend replacing while in this part of the transmission? any gaskets, line pressure boost valve, 4th gear shift kit spring, something with the 3rd clutch? I saw a list of things to replace a while back but cant remember all of it.
@@mph5896 Can you tell me what Transmission is in my 2005 Monte Carlo 3.8 LT? Is it the 4T65-E or the 4T60-E . I was considering trying the Go-Kit to fix my shift problem ?
i did this thanks bro it worked on my 07 impala but now i have some type of popping sound near left and right wheel and car moves to right when i brake lol what you think wheel alignment?
mello beats did you ever find out what was wrong ? I just did this job on my ‘03 Grand Prix and the shifting is all good now. Only thing is I have a grinding sound when I turn left while driving, no grinding when I turn wheels with car parked. I’m wondering if I put it the cv axle correctly all the way where it connects to the transmission. Thank you in advance for any info!
m ph thx .could you tell me how to fix that.i replaced them solenoids and pcs and car still won't go forward it goes reverse and kinda want to go slow forward but not run while pressing the gas .what u mean when u saying Trans been pooched
