Re: Transmission question....

You have a 4T60E. This tranny was used from '94 to '99. The 4T65E was introduced in '97 and I believe is still in use today.

One of the visual identifiers for the 4T60E is the vacuum line that runs off the front of the intake manifold down to the front of the tranny and attaches to a "can" sticking out of the tranny. The 4T65E is fully electronic and does not use any vacuum operation.

Oh and for a daily driver car, be glad you have the 4T60E. The 4T65E's, while being a bit stronger than the 60, are plagued by harsh shift conditions normally caused by the electronic PCS solenoid which controls the shift pressure. This is vacuum operated on the 60E
