The shifter linkage bracket on my 03 Yukon XL (2wd, 1/2 ton) was actually pretty easy to move. There is 1 Torx T-30 directly over the rear driver side pan bolt on top of the transmission flange. The other is two bolts forward (one bolt on the pan between them) both can be hit pretty easily from the tail end of the transmission. Remove the one on the corner, and loosen the one forward of it, and the bracket swings completely out of the way. Don’t even have to touch the exhaust flanges, and no wrestling to bend the bracket back into position when your done. Much easier, imho. Great video, guys.

I have a question if you could kindly answer So I have a 2012 Mazda 3 skyactiv automatic hatch right, and one day I decided to try out the manual-mode but when I moved the knob to shift it wouldn’t change gears, do you have any idea on what the problem might be?
@WSmith-ne5ks3 жыл бұрын
Which way were you trying to change gears, downshifting or upshifting? the car may not let you downshift depending on the speed and the RPM. The computer doesn't want the engine to over-rev so it will prevent shifting to too low of a gear. if you were already in the top gear and couldn't shift up then there is no where else to go, otherwise it depends on how the manufacturer set the gearbox up and how they allow you to upshift.

Great tutorial but most sources I've come across say that when you get a 0756 code, it typically means you need to replace or rebuild the tranny. Any way of knowing if new solenoids make good sense?

Good question. Did you find your answer? It's an inexpensive gamble to replace the solenoids and fluid though, so I figure I'll try that first.

So the A & B solenoids are shift solenoids. Good to know. I watched another video where this wasn't mentioned so I'm glad I watched this one. Edit: filling through the fill tube sucks. One thing that works sometimes is drying the dipstick with brake cleaner. The surface tension of the oil can (hopefully) keep the oil from covering the dipstick. Of course patience helps too. Go put your tools away, clean up the spilled oil, etc. while waiting for the oil to drain down. Maybe they need to coat the inside of the dipstick with something that lets the oil drain off faster.

Yeah I use that trick too. Just make sure the brake cleaner is fully evaporated before sticking it back down the tube.

My truck shifts into gear great with no hard shifts or slips, but when I try to take off in drive it’s like I’m trying to take off with a manual transmission in like 4-5 gear, so I have to manually shift down to 2nd then it will take off but sluggishly, but once you get going you can shift into drive and cruise around fine. The issue to me seems more electrical than mechanical to me atleast

So I checked mine and found another cluster Fk. I found a fuse that was in a slot that said it was a headlamp washer in the fuse block lid but it says it isn't used in the manual so that I don't have a clue what its for. Also three other fuses that were corroded.

It's when I'm on the highway and I ease up on the accelerator, the TCC will unlock and the RPM jump as I accelerate back to TCC lock. Everything else about the transmission is fine. HP Tuners scanner shows that the TCC lock is commanded on during those times that it unlocks.
