You are simply amazing. I am blown away about how easy you make it look working on these incredibly complex and intricate transmissions.

Screw that mess, that is a lot of stuff. What a master! Hats off to you sir

Gary your a National Treasure dude! You definitely know your stuff

Great to see you uploaded a video .Thanks for sharing Garry . New York 12 hour shift keeps you looking young.

A 500,000 mile transmission....Wow😯, The parts in that trans look pretty good and the fluid is still cherry red....Another great job Gary 😊

Thank you, Gary, for your sharing your time and knowledge.

Great video! Thanks for taking the time to make it! I had the same thing happened to mine with 117,000 but I kept driving it until the filter clogged and it stopped. I towed it home and changed the filter and kept driving it until I could somebody to just change the torque converter. It seem to fix it. Strangely enough through the whole thing it never threw a code LOL

I didn't realize Chrysler transmissions have come so far I got an avenger with this transmission and the 3.6 and it's got a quarter of a million miles on it and still runs pretty f****** good

Goes to show you that regular oil changes work wonders.

Thanks for sharing. Very impressive 500,000 mile transmission for sure! The owner is a good driver, plus highway driving is much easier on vehicles than city type of driving. Thanks again and TakeCare, Bill

I'm impressed. I never thought the 62TE would be good, because of how many 41TE and 42TE transmissions I had to swap out. I have been out of the auto repair business for a while because of chronic illness flare ups.

Hi Gary! Finally i was able to go and change the parts on my transmission! Thank you thank you thank you!!! Dodge dealer want to change my transmitttion for $4250 The parts cost me $27 and we changed the oils and filters. Car is running like new! Thank you Gary! You saved me a bunch of money!

Love it. thank you so much. I am thoroughly amazed at your knowledge and skill.

I’m actually doing one of these next weekend.. thank you!!!

Very great to see what these vans can do. Definitely makes it easier for me to sleep at night.

I wish my wife's grand caravan van will last that long. Great work Gary.

Thanks for the video, very detailed and helpful. Keep up the great job and thanks once again.

Its a Ram Pro-master. Good job on the rebuild!!

this dude know exactly what he's doing

And some say don't change the oil well i'm glad I change mine every. 30;000 on my 2007 2.8 crd Grand Voyager thanks for a good video.Jeff in uk

Nice job Gary ,I tear them down the same way, We do see Problem with the compounder assembly and the front pump bushing wear out as well.

Ever great job. another 500 coming up. Thanks

This is a awesome video. Really enjoyed it.

You are a very talented human being.

Justo lo que necesitaba , gracias , thank you

excelente video muy buena explicación.. muchas gracias por compartir...saludos desde México...

Your a brilliant man!

Love your videos Gary was a transmission builder for 25 years, now I drive truck, still miss building 😊.

Gary, I'm amazed how beefy the diff is in these 62TE's. Frictions looked really good, some bushing wear but honestly really looking good. Could have probably gotten away with just a new converter. But when your vehicle is your income it makes sense to do it all, including geartrain. Great video.

Moms 2012 caravan had the original 62te with 209,000 miles. Engine is original to. Used to be a enterprise rental.

the 62TE and 3.6 is a bulletproof combo

you are looking at a master at work

594k id call that 600k I have seen several Chrysler vehicles with mileage in this range... Ive watched about 250,000 vehicles sell at auction and these were some anomalies I noticed, all Chrysler's too... 😉 08 Caravan 62te btw - 290k ran fine 94 ram with 5.2 - 519k ran great 01 Durango 4.7 - 478k ran great 07 Ram 3500 6.7 - 680k ran great Seen others, 300k mile Yotas and 400k mile chevy 6.0s, but the Chrysler's are supposed to be garbage lol...

So a good way to buy a Caravan (or other vehicles using the 62te) is after one good rebuilt or warranty thingy....thats cool to see, thanks👍👍

Hey Gary, I watched your video on the 62TE rebuild. My 2009 Town and Country was driving down the road cruising. When the engine rpm’s started to climb to near red line. No noise came from the transmission. It has park and neutral and no codes. I’m thinking maybe the splines in the torque converter may have stripped out. Do you think I’m on the right idea with the torque converter? And do you think I should do a rebuild right away? Or do you have any other ideas of what it could be? The vehicle has 220k miles and has a MOPAR rebuilt transmission installed in 2016. There is at least 60k miles that I put on this vehicle.

Ooooh thankk youuu!!

such a complex machine 😮

Will we see the rebuild? Look neat for that kind of mileage, nice job

I'd love to see the rest of the van. Is the Pentastar 3.6 all original?

Hello, do you know the maintenance schedule on this particular transmission by this owner?

Hi Gary thank you for taking the time to do these videos. They are so helpful. You're an awesome teacher 👍. I watched a few of your videos to have info on my problem. I have a 2011 dodge caravan and since a few weeks. It can't reverse. If I'm on a slope, it's ok, but flat, it's winding. I have 188 000 km and never changed the transmission oil. No error codes. Can it be just some debris that is clogging the filter or is it a more severe situation. Thanks Hugo from Québec, 🇨🇦

Hi Gary I have a 2014 dodge caravan and i was getting of the highway and at the first stop the car was shaking a little then stalled. I put it in neutral start the car and with high rpm i put it in gear and i was able to roll the car, after that the car shift fine and i was able to drive home 200plus miles. But soon as i have to stop at trafic lights doing the same ting, feels like the cluch wont disengage. No fault code at all. Is it a torque converter or solenoid? Please help, i would like to order the right parts! Thank you for your time!

That’s pretty incredible at 500k!! Especially when I keep reading the PM transmissions failing at 60k on the regular.

Very typical Chrysler transaxle, they are a contraption. The 62TE looks a bit heavier than the Caravan 4 speed units I've pulled. Like seeing that aftermarket drain plug on the pan.

Very detail and nice video ! I have a question for you . Is the compounder removable while the transmission still on the car? I have a 2015 promaster with no reverse , forward driving no problem . With code p0736. I’m thinking to replace the compounder myself .

What kind of fluid did you use after re-build ??? Very good tear down . Thanks

Can you tell me what my voltage is supposed to be on the input and output sensors ? I'm only getting 3.5 volts and I believe its producing a code PO734. Already changed both sensors and solenoid pack, Thanks Gary

Also as I have rebuilt transmissions in the past (never a 62te) I will be rebuilding this one. I have been told there are updated parts I can use to make it stronger, could you recommend the best upgrade parts for my transmission please. Thank you.

I replaced the transmission pump on my 62te. Pump noise is gone now and car drives but: 1. Code P0731 pops up with incorrect 1st gear ratio. 2. Shift into drive is fierce 3. Oil level is adjusted perfectly. 4. It appears to max out in 3rd or 4th gear. Is this a solenoid problem and could this be fixed by cleaning the solenoids?

Great video. I always, if I remember that is, break the low clutch housing t25’s loose while it’s still in the case. Way easier

I observed a clutch drum parts coming out during gear oil replacement of Dodge Journey 2.7 L V6 62TE, how serious is this? how long can i run with this issue usually?

Hey I have a promaster and my reverse went out how hard is that to fix?

Thanks for another great video. It would be nice to see the parts supplier on the back of your shirt, it's impossible to make out the name. Thanks

Hi Gary I have the 62TE transmission in my town and country 2008 I put it on reverse and works fine I put it on drive and dies I thought by replacing the torque converter will help but still the same problem? any idea? What can be thanks a lot very interesting video

You the MAN ! Really appreciate your knowledge and willingness to share it. Bless you. Question; I recently got a 2011 Caravan with 335K miles - amazing condition. TCC solenoid was bad, replaced it with filter and fluid. Old fluid look very good and magnet had a light coat of fuzz (looked good). It seemed to me that the pan seals were factory (never serviced?) After solenoid replacement, the TC chatters on engagement. I added friction mods with limited improvement. In the last 2k-3k mile the chatter has increased and now I detect slip w/ chatter at high load in 5 and 6th. I suspect TC clutch. I'm satisfied with not changing the trans but plan on a TC replace. The question is should I change the pump? I hear a light whine even with the new filter in neutral and light rev - sometime I'm not sure I can hear it. I would love to hear your thoughts and suggestions.

Hi Gary great vids! i made the mistake and didnt bring my 2016 PM into a local Indy shop and brought it to Dealer for a trans replacement. The factory replacement has been a nightmare. within the first 500 miles I needed a new Trans cooler, and After about 2000 miles it started to have a problem were it shifts from 1st into 2nd very hard, and then gets suck in 2nd gear and will not upshift. Sometime pulling over and turning van on and off seems to reset things but recently on a pretty hot day this technique didnt work. I got it towed back to dealer and 2 hours later i started it up and it shifted and drove normally around the block. I left it with dealer. They claim its possibly valve body? does this seem right to you? thanks Travis

Do you have a Video showing how to put a 62TE back together i bought a town and country like 2 years ago had it 3 months trans went sat for almost a year i had them fix it cost me 2400 to replace the solenoid pack etc not even a few months later the trans went a gain my girl was driving and it just went out took it back to the dealer there saying its the trans pump wants 6400 for new trans watching your videos im just going to attempt it my self trans pump right behind the torque converter so i dont know why there telling me 6400 unless there more wrong with it so i think ill just spend the money to buy the parts and learn to rebuild it my self but your videos are amazing you make it look way to easy when i know its very hard also what do u recommend for parts cleaning.

Thanks for this infos. may you suggest please: have a 62TE from grand caravan 2013 with 180K miles. its running fine in first 10-20 miles mostly but suddenly jerking and stocked in 1th gear till i stoop, turn off, turn on then again is good for some miles. i swapped the valve body and solenoid pack but still is same. added some high viscosity oil, got better but still need help. i changed all the 3-speed sensors too, nothing diffenert. Thanks

Gary, where are you located? I am 20 minutes from Saratoga and my wife has a 2011 Chrysler Town & Country that has lost reverse. Assuming it is the low drum seals that spin and are now worn out. I was watching your tear down video thinking I could do it but there is no way, just too involved. How much would you charge to do the low drum seals?

Its like peanuts for you Sir!!!

What are those 6 round white 1” do?

My mechanic kept mentioning a pump failure. Where is the pump in this breakdown?

Hi I really like your video anyway you could show me which solenoid is solenoid d for a 2012 Chrysler Town and country 62 t e

I have a 62te in my caravan it starts shuttering in low rpm's accelerating in 4th and 5th gear. If I use the tiptronic transmission and keep it high rpms basically shift it for max power and keep it juiced with gas it doesn't have that issue. Also will shutter when slowing down in those lower rpms as well happens mostly between 25 mph and 40 mph. Any ideas? I think I need a rebuild but maybe there is a simple fix? Wishful thinking probably but any help will be good!

Dear Gary , great videos - Please keep sharing your knowledge. I traded in my 89,000 mi 2500 Promaster just after the Dealer rebuilt existing transmission. I tend to carry a lot of weight , all the time, but I creep up to 65 -70 mph and drive highway all day long. Is this transmission strong enough to purchase another promaster? This video gives me hope.

A lot of people have replaced the Transmission Torque Converter Clutch Solenoid in the transmission and the rumble strip feeling went away. My 2014 dodge grand caravan does that when coming to a stop. No Check engine light.

Mr . Ferraro a quick learn is necessary after a full rebuild for this transmission ?

just serviced my 2017 dodge grand caravan, with 65,000 miles... there was normal clutch debris on the magnet in the pan, no driveability issues with the vehicle, but in the pan, on the magnet I found 2 pieces of hard metal. not very big pieces abt 3 mm x 3 mm... kind of shiny. wondering where these may have came from, ive heard there is sometimes torque convertor failures on the 62te transmissions,, transmission shifts great, no noises,,, also ive read that the 62TE trans tend to start having failures at around 75,000 miles,, is this what you are seeing? I could see them having issues at 75,000 IF the filter and fluid isnt changed at 60,.000 miles, because the magnet is full and cant hold anymore clutch material, and then then filter would get clogged and starve the pump. if I knew what I know now as far as clutch material on the magnet, I would have serviced my trans at 30,000 miles instead of the chrysler recommended 60,000 miles. I replaced filter with a PROGAURD filter and Mopar type 4 fluid.

I had the dreaded whining noise at 90,000 miles. Changed the fluid and filter. Was good for another 10,000 and than it failed. Leaking transmission fluid like a sieve at the bottom of the bell housing. Now what lol?

tell me when. The gearbox only goes in first gear and a little in reverse (slips) I decided to change the oil. I unscrewed the pan and drained the oil and discovered that there were pieces of metal in the filter (like small teeth. Without removing the transport one, can I replace it with new ones (I think these are friction discs)?

Limit 62TE to 4 when in town traffic, good or bad idea ? intuitively I assume that the gearbox wears out with every gear change. is the converter less used if I choose that ? Manufacturers prefer a computer model where the car shifts 200 times and consumes one thimble less on a test run to show good results on paper. Not me. I prefer a simple gearbox that holds 250 miles. is doing 4-> 1 at each stop less violent for the gear box than doing 5-> 1? is there any way to find out which gear is engaged ? Thank's Gary for sharing your knwoledge :-) !

Great great video do you rebuild this type of transmission for customer?

What was the premium synthetic oil you used?

Hello Gary, I have a 2012 Chrysler Town and Country with 100k miles. It recently broke down and would drive for a little bit when in drive and then rmps go up and it will not move. I have a hard fault P0470 Torque converter clutch solenoid circuit and I can audibly hear a noise coming from the bell housing. The fluid level was good so I pulled the pan, there was no metal in the pan. Could the solenoid cause it to do that or do you think the torque converter needs to be replaced. Any advise would be appreciated.

I have a 2014 as well. How important is it to get the software updates for these. Is it shift quality , or longevity as well. I know Chrysler has newer updates for this tranny.

My 2009 Routan with a 62te needs a new converter, any tips on finding a knowledgeable Transmission shop in my area? I came across Jasper transmissions recommended 62te installer list for my area, but definitely would want to take it to a pro like this. Edit: I'm in OK

Please let all owners know how to check transactions oil levels.

Look at this guy tear that 62 apart..I'm lost

I would hope my Journey transmission looked this good at 95k miles. Getting ready to change the fluid and filter. I would wonder what Gary would tell me what to watch for looking up from the bottom or what he would do?

P0740 replaced the solenoid guessing. Made no difference. Whether code is reset or not has been working perfectly for 30,000 miles one year and 3 months. Noticed leaking lines. From KZfaq used oil dipstick and showed fluid at bottom of safe zone. Just replace lines and filled to top of safe zone on oil dipstick. Was only slightly leaking on driveway. Expect code to return. P0740 calling around pretty much everybody went straight to average $4,000 rebuilt. Still maintaining 20 miles per gallon average that it always has got. Any input?

You said it has 594,000 miles. So it is much closer to 600,000 than to 500,000 miles. Incredible ! !

I am curious to know what brand of transmission fluid this gentle man used ??

what is fluid change recommendation on a trasmissin

I can not believe how many parts are in that little transmission

I have the same transmission in my o9 journey sxt. The fill tube rusted and fluid leaked out. Quit driving g immediately. Finally got it fixed and now when I first start the car and drive around the block, it shifts perfectly but after one block it will not shift. Any suggestions?

If the torque converter didn't go out do you think that would lasted another 100000

Hello is there a way you can be reach for questions about 62te

500,000?? I got 112k out of my 13 T&C. When I bought it, it had 102k. Gives me the opinion these are typical Chrysler junk. Maybe not?

Wow 500k on a 62te, I was looking to buy a pro master but decided to wait a bit, what cargo van would be the most reliable?

We're can I found in the gearbox

when the tcc solenoid goes bad does it throw a code?

This makes me feel right about my decision to change trans oil on my 2019 Caravan at 40K instead of OEM published 60K interval (powertrain warranty also expires at 60K ;) I bought a used rental, and reverse slips a little uphill, and gear 2 or 3 occasionally upshifts hard......it's still under warranty, but I'm scared to let a dealer touch it unless it's un-questionably broken. On a clutch application chart, I'm suspicious of trouble in the L/R clutch....what does L/R mean? Supplemental trans oil coolers yay or nay? any suggestions?

Hello! i have the same transmission on my 2013 dodge avenger sxt 2.4l 6 speed i have a problem with it while driving when i drive 30 miles and start braking and the transmission shifts shifts from 3rd gear to 2nd gear and at this point when it shifts at 20 miles i hear a thump Even when the car is standing still and running, I try to switch gears from P-R-D, I hear kicking, and when I checked like this, the engine moves as if all the supports are broken, although the supports are in normal condition

How come my te62 failed at 90,000?

mine only lasted 167234 miles. previous owners didn't maintain it

I had my transmission replaced with a remanufactured 62 te on a 2012 caravan 3.6. The line blew off and all fluid came out then it stopped. He replaced the lines then said was good. Now warranty is up but lines are leaking and since he did it ive been asking but basically ignoring me. I got new lines and clips going to replace this weekend but have a question. When going slow in traffic it feels like a manual. Like someone kinda slightly shifting wrong ( clutch to fast or slow ) why would it feel like its a manual taking off?

42:04 - I bet someone learned that the hard way. Just bought a 2019 Grand Caravan GT used @ 62,000 miles. Had the dealer do a fluid drain/fill before they handed it off to me. I'm glad this thing is reliable after dealing with the GETRAG 6DCT250 DPS6 clutch issue for 10 years. Does anybody think any premature wear could have occurred having the first fluid changed at 62K? Thanks :)

So I have a 2017 1500 promaster has 220k I did a transmission oil change on it and now my transmission 1st it happened on freeway at 60 it jumped out of gear and ramped up for a Second then jumped back in gear and it's doing same thing more often and last time it stated doing it at stop light I was In drive and didn't move then jump in gear. What could be the case?

I had same thing happen with my low drum ,. Incorrect gear ratio code would cause limp home mode condition. 3rd and 4th ratio.
