Re: 99 GA SE Tranny Fluid Replacement

i would like to say, the L-pan is the transmission pan and when you buy a filter it comes with a gasket, and I would recommend using it.

But if you like having Tranys fluids driping or geting blown out all over everthing then use the old gasket. One more thing, if the tranys low on fluid it will hesitate and slip.

I know its a pain in the Ass, but you can jack up the car, remove the plug, let the car down, and start filling the Trany fluid, when it starts to run out of the plugs hole stop filling. Then just jack it back up and plug it quickly.

Allbert, whats the difference between the 4T40E and 4T45E? other than one having 14 bolts and the other 12.

Is one better/tuffer than the other? My GA has the 4T40E but I've seen GA GTs with the 4T45E, thats why I was inquiring about the two.
