• Q: How to replace the transmission pan on 2008 Chevrolet HHR?

  A: The first step to replace the Oil Pan consists of raising and supporting the vehicle. Start the process by draining transmission fluid through the suitable container attached below the Oil Pan bolts before having them loose. Begin by removing bolting components which attach to the Oil Pan followed by taking out the Oil Pan and then removing the old gasket. An inspection of the Oil Pan must take place to check for dents or damage before its installation when the pan is dry. Before Oil Pan installation you must replace the gasket when sealing ribs are damaged then proceed with replacing any damaged bottom pan. Place the Oil Pan attaching bolts into position then tighten them to 10 n.m (89 lb in). Review the pan while draining the transmission fluid to detect leaks. After fixing the correct fluid level, complete the check. Check the fluid level a second time while examining the Oil Pan Gasket for signs of leakage.
