I did this 2 days ago and when I put it all back together 2 codes popped up..the dreaded P0700 transmission control module and the P0976 shift solenoid B control circuit low. All I did was changed the filter and fluid and new gasket and these 2 rotten codes pull up...I have the fluid level perfect and when I drive it it has a slow 2-3 shift so that's one of the 2 solenoids on the backside of the trans case pan rail area.. I bought 2 new solenoids and will do them tomorrow but I didn't buy a pan with the drain plug so that's a drag. We will see what happens tomorrow... I have cleared the codes with my hand held scanner and did the battery dis-connect and also the on-off the key and gas pedal and the codes keep coming back with the check engine light on.. Excellent video here.

Great video. Didn’t have to mess with the exhaust, but did remove passenger side heat shield and had to pry the shift cable bracket away to get the pan out and in. Needed two people to get it back up. Had a super hard time getting filter seal out. This job sucks doing it from the ground on a dirt driveway.

Bud question real quick just did service on my 03 rcswb Silverado 2wd 1500 with tow haul package. Deep pan filter 4l60e and have lost 4th gear or od. I replaced o ring seal on with filter and I was wondering if I didn’t seat the filter all the way? I would think if I didn’t the pan wouldn’t have went back on bc it is so tight by the exhaust pipe.

This Job is tough for some one to do alone! & not on a lift & I did not need to loosen any of the exhaust, I did remove the heat shield ( passenger side ) & used a big pair of channel locks to pry shifter linkage bracket back on the drive shaft & the pan will come out ( move shifter cable out of the way 1st ) this is a good video.

I just unbolted the shifter linkage bracket there's 2 t40 bolts holding it in. If you have a lift it's not very hard to get your head in the right spot to see them and remove the bracket. I didn't have to mess with any of the exhaust stuff just that bracket and the pan came out easily

Sir you did a excellent job. I do have a question if you don't mind. Since you did the drain and got 5 qts out and refill. Would you not want to do just a drain and refill once or twice more? Since the 4L-60E contains approx 11 qts there was more fluid in the torque converter and other parts of the transmission that was not replaced

When dropping the pan, for an extra "hand" wedge in some old rags or shirts between the exhaust pipe and pan. It will hold it while taking out last bolts.

I had replaced solenoids in mine and at first when everything was put back on it was clean.. But after driving down the street and back and parked , came out couple hours later and it was leaking ??

Very complete video!

Will you suggest doing this same process on a same vehicle but with 153000 miles on it?

Excellent video

Torque spec for exhaust nuts were not in the description,can anyone fill that info in?

Just did mine today. Pumped out most of the fluid with the cheap Harbor freight transfer pump. Made a slide hammer out of 1/2 pipe and took out the filter gasket. Didn't have to touch the shifter linkage. Slid the pan towards the passenger side and just angled the driver's side down a little and it came right out.

We remove gaskets the last 40 years with a scraper that has an exchangable razor blade and before , we warm the old gasket up with a heat gun and later a rotating brass wire brush on the battery drill . I made an impact driver tool on the lathe to put this new suction pipe seal in and I use a small slide hammer bearing puller to get the old seal out . Yes the exhaust pipe is in the way , well not all car designers are born and skilled in Germany.

You can also take the hooked end of a large wrecking bar and hook it over the loosened exhaust from the side. Jacking up or having a friend pull up on the other end sticking out to the side of the truck will use the frame as a fulcrum to lower the exhaust. I used the jack method as an extra set of hands and just left it in place until the job was done. Easy peasy.

Could this fix my Transmission pump whining?

@The Sundae Drive no problem man , your tutorial is awesome,good job man

Not a bad video - but a few things. 1, the gunk in the pan (while common) is not a good sign. 2, the pan gasket indicates that the fluid was changed before for some reason. That + the gunk = a rebuild will be not too far away for this transmission. 3, the filter should be more difficult to remove, and harder to install. The filter seal on this transmission is no good, it's probably hardening from heat and age - AND this seal should ALWAYS be replaced - no matter how hard it is to remove. A bad filter seal causes bubbles in the fluid, and that will cause over heating and eventual failure. Also, if you are going to change the fluid frequently - by dropping the pan - it is wise to invest about $40 for a rubber/silicon pan gasket with steel band in it. They are reusable, and last forever.

Can't remember if we did it not. Might have swapped it off camera. It should be swapped but we were having a really tough time getting it out

Ha. You cut out just the part that I (and I'm sure others) wanted to see. When you place the filter back into the whole it seemed to not go in easy - had to really push it up and get it to "snap" in place. Came to see if that happened when you did it but alas - you cut just that part out. So I'm going to take guess and say you did have a bit of a problem with it and that's why it was edited out.

I honestly don't remember it we had trouble with it or not. We normally try to show the harder parts in our videos because we feel that is the most helpful. It's possible we just had bad footage. That said, I do know ok a couple vehicles I've had to push up pretty hard to get it to seat fully.

@@TheSundaeDrive Thanks for the reply. I changed my Trans oil, filter, filter seal, and pan seal on a gifted-to-me Tahoe. When I drive 1st gear is fine, 2 and 3 take a while (high revs) to kick in. I can reverse fine. (haven't tried starting in drive or some other tests) In the beginning of this video you mention changing some shift solenoids and torque converter PWMV. Would that fic the problem I am having?

Transmissions are very finicky so it is hard to say for sure but it is an easy swap and it might help. We have a video going through the shift selonoid swap and there a lot of comment threads so someone may have experienced your issue

@@TheSundaeDrive By the way in one of your other videos you talk about replacing the transmission filter seal - or rather NOT replacing it because it's a pain to remove. I saw another video where they make a simple tool out of 1/2 in threaded pipe about 12 in long, one 1/2 90 degree elbow and a 1/2 threaded pipe about 3-4 inches long. You make an "L" shape out of it and then screw it into the filter seal about 4 turns. Then tap the "L" part at the bottom with a hammer a few times. Couldn't believe how easy it was and I was really thankful cause I tried a bunch of the other methods that didn't work. For replacing it I found a socket that was about the same size and put the seal on the end of the socket, I wrapped electrical tape around the socket and a little on the seal just to keep it in place. Aligned it with the hole and tapped a few time with a mallet. It worked first time (not my idea).

I'll have to try that! Removing that seal is such a pain so definitely worth a shot for sure.

You guys never included the torque spec for the exhaust bolts. Located in the description drop down under #2..

@@hockeyjuan I just got done with this job. I have a '03 suburban, 1500 series,, 5.3L, with a deep dish pan. I was able to complete the filter change without having to remove the exhaust. I just disconnect that cable & used a pry bar to move the bracket over enough to slide the pan out. You need to remove the heat shield on the opposite side ( with the two 10mm bolts holding it on). My pan came with a drain plug. Hope this helps you.

I need to go back and find them. We were having trouble locating then even we published. Thanks for the reminder tho!

When adding fluid... why not just refer to owners manual?

Always what you should do for sure

Try a fluid extractor, before cracking the pan loose and making such a mess.

I stripped out one of the hex screws that was holding on the bracket for the shift linkage, I ended using a pair of Knipex pliers to take that screw out. There is 2 of them but if you just take out the back one, you can easily move that bracket out of the way
