what is the part no# for a replacement transmission filter, for a 2001 Pontiac gtp grand prix . Also how much transmission fluid does it take to change.thank you Tim
Remove transmission oil pan Replace fluid, filter, and gasket
To change the transmission filter on your vehicle you have to drop the transmission pan. Once you get it down you will see the filter. It comes out by pulling it down and twisting it a little.
The transmission filter will be located inside the transmission. Their is no need to replace it if you flush it. A flush will clean everything and rinse the filter
where are the oxygen sensors on a 2000 Pontiac grand am and how do you change them?
if you have waited until you have transmission problems to change the fluid, you have waited too late...........
No. The transmission is completely sealed.
