I’ve rebuilt many the manual transmission in my days, but up until recently have never had cause to rebuild an automatic. The better half’s Journey decided it was time to change that. Your video series on the 62TE have greatly demystified automatics for me. Initially thought it was just a torque converter failure, but upon disassembly learned that the input drum had basically come apart. Bearing failure, thrust washer breakage, as well as physical damage to input shaft, inner drum, and both hubs. Thankfully the carnage was contained within the drum.

This video is so much better than the "factory training" I received from Chrysler at their school in Kennesaw. Hard to learn anything when there's only one instructor for 10 students and only two transmissions for each class to learn on.

Modern transmissions with multiple clutches, pistons, drums all in one assembly are incredible. The only things I've worked on are older and have 1 drum 1 function. Unless you count the direct/reverse in a TH400. Much more complex in these units. The ZF8HP series is really complex. Great work Gary, this should be a very nice unit for the customer, especially with the updated drum. See you next week.

A toda madre ni entiendo que dice pero está muy claro el vídeo ojalá fueran así los cientos que ponen los títulos y nomás no ...gracias por la serie mister .

I like the way you snuck that o'ring into it's correct position

Thanks Gary, with a mallet and also I put transmission fluid all around to decrease resistance it worked and able to thick snap ring on

Really enjoyed your video. You have great teaching skills! 🍻

Great job . New Veh they have all to the smallest posible , even the name for it compounder clutch . All compacted .

I use to work in 6200 assembly at the Kokomo Transmission Plant before they recently stopped production and tore out the line. Love this transmission.

Awesome video like always very well presented with lots of passion for this highly specialized field when a teacher displays his passion it makes the learner more focused and willing to learn. Last but not least the cleanliness just too good Can't wait to see the next part Rafiek from South Africa Johannesburg

I like the fact that the 62te is close as fragile as the first 41te's have been 30 years ago. But thats what makes rebuilders live, lots of 62te's out there... Anyway, i cant imagine having anybody else rebuild my transmissions then you, perfect knowlegde and work, respect!!

AWESOME GUY! very nice job

Thanks Gary, your video is a godsend!!! I'm new to rebuilding a 62TE and your video is just what I was looking for, thank you again. I just bought a core 62te for $100 and when I went to pickup it was a rebuilt unit from mopar build date 11/2017 I'm planning on breaking it down tomorrow morning and was wondering if there was anything I should look for, I did an ohms check to see if anything was obvious like selenoid pak, ok so far.

I have learned very much sir!Thanks a lot god bless you.

Your a life saver dude great videos i love the details, you break it down to every little detail 👌🏼

What is The número of The sonax bushing?

Gracias amigo, me fue de mucha utilidad estoy aprendiendo inglés con duolingo solo para entender ,inglés y gracias ya logré entender este video

Gary, years back when I used to work at a shop they sent me to a transmission seminar. The one thing I heard multiple times that was one of the top causes of the transmission failure with these electronic transmissions was due to people not coming to a complete stop when going from reverse to drive.... doing those rolling shifts. You seem very knowledgeable... so was wondering on your input? The Chrysler speaker said it multiple more times than the Ford or GM guys.

You'da man Gary !!!

What can cause one of this to go into limp mode after rebuild? Has reverse but it wont move on forward. It engages into drive but it won’t move. Everything inside is new! Including new solenoid block and converter. Any ideas?

Saludos y Bendiciones, por acá un amigo que lo sigue y estudia con sus videos, una pregunta: En el minuto 43:10 se le pasó colocar el priner rodamiento de dos que lleva el eje, o sea donde asienta y gira el distribuidor, me imagino que tuvo que corregir eso después, ud hace referencia a que lleva dos rodillos con cesta plásticas que abren !

Great job, good content! Thank you, Gary.

Gary, since you have your share of those transmissions in for rebuilds is their failure due to high mileage and lack of maintenance or an issue with design? Great full length videos and knowledge I remember the 'Original STP from the 60's and 70's, it was thicker than frozen honey, with Todays engines and miniscule orifices certainly not a suggestion by any manufacturer

2013 dodge grand caravan do have any ideas why it drives about 30 feet and drops into neutral this symptom was there before and after I rebuild it did I miss something possibly in the transmission just curious if you have come across this

just wondering why you just dont use transmission fluid to assemble the parts

Love it. Thank you.

you say a typical problem with these is a clogged screen, what or which screen ? What you describe kind of sounds like the van I'm working on right now, it's my son's 2012 Town and Country, they say it just stopped shifting one day, no prior problems or symptoms according to them, I looked at it, it had codes P0733, P0846 and P083b and it screeched whined like a banshee (interestingly when it whined it would shift but when it went quiet it would not shift, I expected it to be making noise constantly) got online to see results for the error codes and symptoms and ended up changing filter and fluid, that helped for a couple of days and then no shift, checked the resistances on solenoid block and all seemed to be good but went ahead and changed TCC solenoid, the line pressure solenoid and the pressure switch, that did not work either. If it sits either overnite or for an hour or two it will shift, it is making noise but stops shifting fairly soon. I dropped the transmission this last week but have not decided what to do yet, am leaning towards getting a rebuilt transmission, less work for me, but the curious, problem solver part of me wants to know what happened. When I first changed filter it was pretty clogged/dirty but fluid wasn't too bad and no big particles or pieces of anything. The 2nd time I opened it up (had maybe 120 miles put on it) everything looked okay but in the short time there was a lot of sludge on magnet. Anyway like I said at first it sounds like what you are describing, at first it shifts but soon as it warms up a little, no shift.

Very great job!

Great job Gary! Clean and smooth workmanship. TakeCare, Bill

Awesome, thank you Gary.

Thank you for the thorough 62TE videos. My 2015 Journey 3.6 62TE with 135K probably needs work. Do you know of a good mechanic in Los Angeles? Do you ship your rebuilds? I'm noticing 1/2 sec. shutters into 5th and 6th. 1st gear under heavier acceleration has a noise & vibration that goes away easing off the gas, it happens in 2nd as well. Some coast clunking too

WHAT DO YOU USE THE STP FOR

Very informativ videos!! 10x!!!

Hello I just rebuilt my 62te and I have reverse but it won’t move forward at all my hydraulic pressure is good according to my scanner any help is appreciate

@GaryFerraro I would like to know more about the foot press that you use.

Hi Gary, I did the compounder assembly on my 2010 town and country 4.0 for reverse issues and P0792, P0734, P0733 codes. The ring was almost off the end of the drum. The clutches all looked good and I couldn't source any replacement ones, so I reused those. I replaced all the rings and seals in the drum that came with the mopar overhaul kit and also the low piston. I went through the valve body and replaced the seal and the 2-4 clutch seal. I didn't remove the input drum though because I left it in the car. Now I am having the issue of on a hard acceleration from a stop there is something clearly slipping, but no codes. I dropped the trans and removed the input drum and everything is looking good. Any thoughts on where in the transmission that slipping could be coming from?

I followed everything and reinstalled. Transmission shifts fine only thing is the car feels like it's holding back. Kind of like I driving with the brake on. Any ideas.

Hi Gary,Thanks for your videos,professional information. I have a Chrysler Town & Country 2010 with a problem on the Transmission,some times it stock on speed 50 miles and cant go further speed and if you push more gas the RPM go to the max almost.some times if i stop the car and turn off then on the problem disapeers. I took it to Transmission shop and he checks it on the computer and there was error with one of the selenoids ,He also drives the car and check the transmission,and if he put the gear on Reverse down hill the car will go down and vise versa up hill. also he checks the tiptronic was not working. He want to rebuild the transmission ,to change the computer valve body and the bad parts inside the clutches. The cost is not cheap, so i decide to buy the original parts from chrysler and let him do the job. Is there a Master kit that i should buy from chrysler parts shop ,or do i have all parts inside the transmission includes the torque and others?

Watching you in action is actually better in some ways to actually going to training. You can’t remember everything when you leave the classroom. How did you get into the transmission rebuilding game?

Hi Gary, great job, thank you for your great explanation! What kind of electric tool from DeWalt you used for the preliminary tightenings of screws? Is it screw driver or torque wrench? Thanks a lot!

Does the end nut usually come with the overhaul kit?

We're do you buy the rebuild kits and brand recommend.

Hi Gary what's your advice on the 2000-2004 odyssey transmissions as far as keeping them running as long as possible other than a fluid change every 20.000mi? Great video 👍

What is recoment rebult kit for that compounder? Im looking hard cant find one

Please give us a link where we can order all that please help

Hi Gary. I think your presentation is great, you should have been a professor in a university. I have a question, I am working on a 62te automatic v6 sxt and for some reason I can not put the rebuild compound and hub far enough down to put the snap ring on. I've checked everything twice and the assembly is right. Any ideas?

Thanks for this series, you are a great teacher! What would you recommend for a 2014 62te with 200k on it, It started to have a clunk at 4-3 3-2 2-1 coast downshift, mainly 3-2, all upshifts have always felt good, changed solenoid pack, cleaned valve body, inspected the 2-4 valve with no sights of wear, did a quick learn and made no changes, I live in maryland 20677

Hi Mr. Ferraro, It is great video on rebuilding the 62te. Is there a difference in friction plates for under drive and overdrive clutches. I am working on a 2012 Grand Caravan. Please give your advise.

Gary....I'm rebuilding right now and can not get the input retainer spline to mate with spline on input hub....tried everything. it starts but stops way before fully pressed together. I've tried clamp pressure....lots of pressure...will not move.

Disculpa tengo una pregunta reconstrui una transmicion ,con apoyo de tus videos cambie las ligas y puse pastas nuevas , antes cambiaba ,pero la primera chillaba mucho y ya reconstruida no cambia nada , y eso si ya no sumba ,y estira con fuerza , que me quedaría mal , si pudieras ayudarme, gracias de antemano

Love your videos! As daunting as it would be to disassemble and rebuild an automatic transmission, I'd almost feel confident tackling such a job, using your videos as a guide. I have a 2013 T&C and therefore, a 62TE. Just finished a pan drop, filter replacement and pan with plug installation. I use AppCardiagFCA to get the trans temp and use the level chart. I used about 6 quarts for the refill. About week before that, I evacuated and refilled about 5 quarts (2 or so at a time). I measured and scribed on the backside of my engine oil level dipstick for the high and low marks based on the chart. Two questions though...Do you have a system for keeping track of all the fasteners, clips, rings etc so you know which part goes back where? I'm guessing you know them inside and out. I suppose it's like anything else, one just needs a system. Secondly, I have read how finicky these transmissions are about fluid (friction modifiers, viscosity), ATF+4. All that trans gel and STP you're slathering on there, I'm guessing it isn't enough to mess with the finely tuned ATF+4 chemistry? Again, always appreciate watching your videos. EDIT: Just thought of something else, and of course I'll understand if you don't have the time to answer my questions. I just find this stuff fascinating and trying to learn. I have an app called OBD Fusion. It can retrieve a lot of information. Right now, I have line pressure (desired an actual - these are in agreement all the time). I also have LR, OD, UD, 2-4 clutch fill volumes (CVI). These are all within spec. I understand that these values can increase as the clutch material wears? So, if they exceed the maximum value in the specs, does that mean my clutches are worn? Other than line pressure and CVI, what other variables could a person look at to determine the overall health of the transmission without opening it up?

Outstanding information. Is there any rebuild kit out there you recommend? Thank you

Could I see the very very beginning please

Gary, where can I purchase the metal bushing you replaced?

what is the difference between green and blue paste color ?? it is the maim thing not ???

Shrike 0064, your post did not show, but to answer your question, yes

I don't understand English, so I am writing with the help of a translator. I have a question about a gear that turns in one direction and does not turn the other. Which way should it spin freely, clockwise or counterclockwise ???

grazie.top 👍

Your timing is perfect for my repair. Thank you for making this video. Why don't you get an affiliate link for transmission parts? Your help has been invaluable to me.

62te rebuild part4 please post it

Is there no benefit to soaking the frictions?

What gears is the input drum

Hi Gary, I've rebuilt a 62te after failure of the input hub bearing, now it has reverse but has no drive and code p084b. I can clear the code but it comes back after shifting to drive. Valve body and solenoids seem to be good. What can be the issue?

I have dodge promaster whit te62 shift hard from 1-2 and 2-3. What u think what problem is?

Hey Gary, where can I buy a good rebuild kit for the 62te?

First I had a P0740 code, which I replaced the tcc solenoid first, didn’t help and then I replaced the torque converter. Now I am getting p2764 anyone have any advice? Transmission doesn’t shift.

DID THE 62TE BEGIN IN 2007

Gary, what kind of scanner do I need to program my rebuilt tranny to finish the job? Is it called flash, relearn, or program? I'm trying to find the correct scanner that will be suitable to complete my rebuilding DYI? Thank you!

Lost reverse in my wife's 2011 T&C, they are telling me $5000 to fix. Car not worth that much. You must be an expert at these now, is it possible to replace just the rotational rings that causes the problem? Or is a whole rebuild in order?

Well done uncle Garry! Why dont you soak frictions before assembly?

Where do I buy parts for my 62TE because I would highly enjoy rebuilding my older trustworthily unit? Thank you!

Where is part 4☹️
