probably not this sounds like something a mechanic would need to look at but i would be present and look into the pan when they remove it to see if there are signs of metal this indicates some internal parts are breaking. but if it is only clunking when you first put it into gear check the u-joints if it is a rear wheel drive car if it is a front wheel drive look at the motor while some one puts it into gear you may have some worn out motor mounts which are cheaper to replace than a motor.
on 3.1 it is 7qts when changing tranny filter..
The filter his held in by bolts
try changing filter and tranny fluid!!on 3.1 it takes 7 quarts to fill up after filter change.
the cap is on top of tranny, and it is red in color,you will need a long funnel to add fluid. 7 qts on 3.1 if changing filter,
There is a screen in the transmission fluid sump but no filter.
If the transmission would not go into gear before changing the transmission fluid, then the fluid change was for naught. Hopefully you changed the filter in there, too. If the tranny was busted before the oil change, then simply changing the oil is not going to fix the problem.
7.2 automatic, 4wd transfer case 1.8 ,if you are changing filter and seal in tranny 4.4 only.
? Not sure, I do not think there is a filter for the automatic or manual. If is it the 3.0 V6 the tranny filter is located inside the tranny(internal filter). Requires disassembly to replace. I just change the fluid every 20,000.
Find the drain plug on the tranny oil pan. Loosen it and the fluid should start to drain - remove the plug all the way and let the contents go into a pan. When doing this, one also needs to change the tranny oil filter - this is accomplished by removing the tranny oil pan and changing it.
Try changing transmission fluid and filter
dnt change it unless ur tran iz bad. just add AZ needed take car keep in touch /\ | |____________This answer is entirely wrong and B.S. You should change your tranny fluid every 30K miles or 24 months, whichever is less. I suggest that while you are changing out your fluid, you might as well also change out your tranny filter, which is located inside of your tranny oil pan. Remember to also buy a tranny pan gasket and RTV sealant if you do this. Also, when changing the fluid, because of the age of the car, make sure to get tranny fluid designed for high mileage vehicles. This will help seal any gaskets and be better for lubricating the tranny. It's worth paying more for this type of tranny fluid. -gz1
Yes. The tranny will not have enough fluid in it!
