Loved this post. Thanks Bill.

Temp range is 30-50c. Cap it off earlier than later. I cap mine off at 32c.

My service manager printed off the instruction sheet for pan removal and I had asked him about the “one time use” bolts. He said the sheet says to use “new” bolts but they often reuse the same ones with no issue. As ShadowsPapa said, they’re ferrous metal -steel. (Thanks Bill😉) Honestly, 89 in...

The transmission pan bolts on my 21 JTR are metal.

Grab a magnet and see if the pan bolts are magnetic or not.

Hope this fixes it!

Here’s the reason several of us, NOW, use and rely on oil analysis reports to tell us not only the condition of the oil but it also shows us the health state of the component we’re checking. If we know there’s a problem, like in my case, (I can speak about it and get the facts right at the same...

You again didn’t pay attention to the facts so you should not mislead as you do so well. You are an FCA “yes man” insider and just like you, the very best of the FCA investigation team who was ordered to investigate what happened with my transmission deliberately and intentionally refused to...

Stop posting misleading comments and I’ll stop being upset and calling you on it. You feel like handing out Valium, start with @ShadowsPapa who gets more bent out of shape with most everyone and has no problem or shame in delivering, he just forgot to straighten you out. If we extensively went...

Then don’t make a false statement about the guy in the video you didn’t watch, don’t bother to even take away any of the good points he had to say and I didn’t “learn” flushing was a bad idea, it didn’t destroy my transmission and yes, the dealership knew in advance I was getting the flush done...

So Bill, after actually having some time to reread, several times what you said and rewatching that video 2 more times, you posted a bullshit post which suckered two others to give you a “thumbs up” liking to it, which if the two of them carefully watched that video, they will agree with me and...

Because they lied and some have bought into it and signed on to go along.

My best advice would be to get an oil analysis. The lab will show how the wear metals are doing, maybe they will even highlight a problem and offer suggestions. You can post the analysis report here and can take suggestions.

So is this the standard?

Be nice Bill. Maybe I should clarify my point, here it is… DONT flush it, just be happy to do a pan drop. DONT add on a gazzilion miles before entertaining the idea of doing your first pan drop. DONT think the fluid needs to get real old before entertaining the idea of doing the first pan drop...

So, guess what…in that video, the guy does a great job of explaining the importance of changing the tranny fluid because “clutch wear”, (that is continuous) “changes the friction modifiers”….so (in his opinion) “changes it every 50k miles, end of story”. Well, guess what, you don’t “have to...

Here:

Hmmm, wondering if there’s a sensor magnet now that the design was changed. I guess OP will inform us all shortly?

Wouldn’t using brake cleaner be ok if you stay away from the electrical bits? I’ve only ever used brake cleaner on my diffs and not sprayed the sensor or harness and been ok ..so far. I’ve also potted my sensors and are still the original ones (21 JTR)

Remember, it’s not the bolt you remove, it’s the one single Torx screw is all that pins it there. Once Torx screw removed, the sensor is held in place by the pull of the magnet. You’ll figure it out when pulling it off the magnet. The gear oil I use is MOTUL 300 75/90. It’s done very well for...
