Question 1

How to replace the Automatic Transmission Filter in a 4L60-E on Chevrolet Suburban 1500?

Accepted Answer

Before beginning the automatic transmission fluid/filter replacement of a 4l60-e the vehicle needs to be raised then the transmission oil pan needs to be placed in a drain pan. Begin by removing the Drain Plug of the oil pan when equipped then remove the bolts from the oil pan starting with the front then the sides while leaving the rear bolts slightly loose at 4 turns. An oil pan drainage process starts with using a rubber mallet to tap the pan followed by removing all bolts and the pan-gasket combination. Use a strong hand position to twist out the filter before extracting the filter seal while employing pliers when required to dispose of both items. The fluid inspection should reveal color variations while the filter should show presence or absence of brass slivers which represent bushing wear along with steel or other random particles. Service the opening on the transmission case as well as the Oil Pan Gasket surfaces by clearing them with solvent while thoroughly removing any remaining gasket material. The new filter seal requires automatic transmission fluid application before placing it in the transmission case during installation with a proper size socket for tapping. After installing the new filter you should add the oil pan and new gasket before applying alternating and uniform force of 11 nm (97 inch lbs.) on transmission case bolts. The threads of the Drain Plug on the oil pan require gm p/n 12346004 sealant before installation at 18 nm (13 ft. Lbs.) torque. Fill the transmission with dexron iii transmission fluid at the proper level by checking the cold fluid measurement during the initial addition and visually inspect the Oil Pan Gasket for any signs of leakage.
