Great video and explanations. I just did my 2016 GMC All Terrain stock 20” tires. My truck had started shuddering at 60k miles, but all my mileage is highway. I do all my mechanical work and after watching your video, it was a piece of cake. My pan came out easily, slid right out without loosening anything and I reused the original gasket after completing the cleaning and new filter. All pan screws were torqued as you explained, 7 qts out, 7 in, but I drilled a 1/2 hole on top of quart bottle cap and just changed from one bottle to the next using the Harbor Freight pump. Did the gear shifting then took it for a few mile drive, runs great.

Thats super neat we have similar cars and you have a 70 mach 1. The screaming yellow cobra is a very rare one too. Be sure to use the LV ATF HP fluid if you have the 8 speed.

Hey Danny, I changed the filter and fluid yesterday (10 Aug 23) on my 2017 Yukon (Denali). (30K miles) My filter was sightly different with a seal I also changed (this vehicles filter had no metal clip on top & had a longer tube - no big deal) I used 7 quarts of the Mobile 1 blue label full synthetic ATF LV HD. I didn't have the shudder in 7th or 8th gear that some reported (higher mileage typically) but I had the bump when slowing down between 2nd and 1st gear. Verry happy to say it is gone as others have stated. Cheers. Chris

Good luck. It’s worth a try. There will be a lot of fluid you won’t be able to access that is up in the torque converter, so I would recommend doing this process twice (or at least once the fluid and filter have been replaced, drain it from the overflow drain plug and fill it again. With that said you may want to buy about 12 quarts www.amazon.com/Mobil-124715-Synthetic-Quart-Bottles/dp/B07Q3H159N?crid=A9G9KYUUW6QJ&keywords=Mobil+1+124715+Synthetic+LV+ATF+HP+Case+1+Quart+Bottles+Set+of+6&qid=1646415180&sbo=RZvfv//HxDF%2BO5021pAnSA%3D%3D&sprefix=mobil+1+124715+synthetic+lv+atf+hp+case+1+quart+bottles+set+of+6,aps,135&sr=8-2&linkCode=sl1&tag=2004047-20&linkId=f1fe31c99067b5e8a8583b8259956a16&language=en_US&ref_=as_li_ss_tl

So at the very end you didn't show the slow drip you were referring to, did you have to add any more ATF? If so, do you just remove the fill plug at the top and add until it's a slow drip?
@dannyjohnsonsgarage 3 жыл бұрын
Mike C I later added in a slight amount more and it dripped that amount out. It was very close from what I took out. So for that remember to fill the transmission first so it doesn’t burn you filling it, and be careful once it reaches that 100 degree mark as you remove the bottom drain (fill level) plug

2021 Silverado 1500 5.3 8spd….that pry bar trick doesn’t work. Tried to reposition it even took the exhaust clamp off the downside of y pipe. It hits the crossbar. It does come down enough to where u can angle it down towards the front. Take the filter out and clean the pan but be careful. I was able to do it without completely taking it off. It fixed my chadder and the transmission feeling like it was struggling going into gears or like misfiring almost.

If it’s the 8 speed transmission (8L90E) it should have the exact mobil 1 HP LV shown in the video. I’m fact, GM now Carries that fluid in their dealership. That’s my experience anyway. Many have said the mobil 1 Hp LV makes the difference from it not having torque converter shutter. Maybe ask the shop if you can bring them the fluid, but for $100 it might just be best for the dealer to do it

I personally believe that it is best to change the filter and the fluid each time and not do a flush as it is more gentle on the system. You will not get all of the fluid out by simply draining it because much is up in the torque converter, so multiple fluid and filter changes seem to be the best.

What is the purpose of removing the 10 mm bolt at the end of the video? Is this to let any excess fluid drain out?
@dannyjohnsonsgarage 2 жыл бұрын
Yes, the transmission does not have a dip stick to check fluid levels. When the vehicle is at operating temperature it should be slightly dripping from that bolt. Carful because it’s right next to the exhaust

My sisters 08 Escalade is as making a bad noise right at the trans filter area it’ll shift gears when driving but like a minute later the noise comes on and won’t shift into gear anymore you have to turn the truck off and back on in order for it to run again but then that noise comes on and won’t go anywhere do you think by changing the filter will fix the problem ? I checked the oil and it’s black

It might, but I would also look into shift solenoids or something more electronic. You can see them when the pan is off and look for any bad connections, but for that year it’s a different transmission so you’ll have to have someone more skilled take a look

@dannyjohnsonsgarage Жыл бұрын
It’s called torque shutter from the torque converter. It’s a common issue with the 8 speed and this is one of the “fixes” However, you’ll only get half the fluid out since the rest is up in the converter , so you may want to replace the fluid again to continue to dilute it

What? GM Knows there is a problem! It's most likely torque converter "Shutter" This is a huge problem on the 8L90, there is a GM (TSB # 19-NA-018) for this issue, they will first do a fluid exchange with updated fluid, reset the transmission adaption "Tap Cells" test drive the vehicle and see if it goes away, if not, it's most likely going to need to have the torque converter replaced. I suggest you start putting pressure on your dealer to fix it!

@dannyjohnsonsgarage 3 жыл бұрын
Enduro VEX The first reason is the machines do not get cleaned out properly between flushes, so you end up with different fluid from the previous flush and this fluid needs to be specificity as shown. Next, a flush introduces some dirty fluid from the previous job. Next, the pressures used to flush the system are greater than what the transmission normally sees and cause damage. Just a few reasons and you’ll hear of many people having problems from it if you look around.

Why would you not recommend a flush?
@dannyjohnsonsgarage 4 жыл бұрын
First and foremost, shops don’t properly clean out machines. Not only from bad fluid, but when adding new fluid it will mix with other fluid and it must be specific to each vehicle if the vehicle before you used something else. Next, the systems used to flush use excessive pressure which can damage components in the transmission. Lastly, like on this yukon there is not a drain plug, so you need to drop the pan. You also see in this video the grime I had to physically wipe out. A flush won’t do that but will break it up and cause more problems. You also want to change the filter
@davidschmidt449 4 жыл бұрын
Danny Johnson make sense for a transmission that just needs an oil change for maintenance reasons. I have had two trans that were over heated and burnt the oil. The one I’m still using I had a flush done and then filter change and it drives normally now. Before the flush it would mess up shifts and all kinds of stuff. It’s been going on the new oil 2.5 years now and still fine.
