Awesome. Mechanic wanted to charge me $5000 to rebuild my transmission and stop a check engine code. I told him "Let's just try to change the fluid first". He told me I was wasting my time and he wouldn't service my transmission - only rebuild it. I did it myself. Cost me less than $100. Everything is shifting smoothly, and no more check engine light. This video is greatly appreciated!!!!

Suggestion... Loosen the pan bolts (not all the way) enough to make a space to use the Topsider once again to drain additional fluid from the pan. Simply slip the tube into the space created by loosening the bolts.

I made my own "topsider" years ago. Some stiff tubing (pex maybe?) and a 5 gal bucket with a lid. Drilled one hole in the lid for a tight fit with the tubing and another to fit my shop vac hose. Created suction in the bucket to pull fluids then shut off vac and let it siphon overnight. Used it on several vehicles.

Important maintenance on a Jeep. Do it long before 60K. My Jeep had more pick up and energy. I did mine at 40K and it was due. The dealer told me not to. The dealer wants you to wait, so it’s out of warranty and your basically screwed. Good video

The worst part for me was getting the pan around the exhaust on a stock setup. all my exhaust bolts are rusted beyond repair. 1) I had to jack the trans as high as it would go by removing the back (4) 16mm bolts that hold the trans to the rubber mount. (jack up until you can hear it crushing the sound deadening material on the trans tunnel). 3 of my trans mount bolts are rusted to the cross member. it was still a struggle multiple 4 letter words type of struggle. 2) To get the back torx bolt out I drilled a hole straight through the cross member. less than 3/8's. The cross member has a ton of holes in it already one more won't hurt. I thank you for the video as it provides a good template to follow but for my stock rusted 8 year old JK things were not as easy.

Good video. I'm getting ready to do this service as well as the transfer case and differentials on my 2014 JK. As you point out, you want to be sure there is a new O ring on the transmission filter. Like all similar automotive components with O rings or similar seals, you want to be certain that you install the new part with one, and only one, seal. Sometimes the old O ring can be stuck in place, so be sure when you change an oil filter, transmission filter, or similar part, that you account for ALL the O rings; i.e. new one in and, just as important, old one out.

I suck out and replace 2-3 quarts of trans fluid (Mopar ATF 4) when I do my oil changes at 5000 miles, only use Pennzoil Platinum synthetic 5W20 and Mopar OEM filter cartridge for oil. I do my differentials every 20k (Mopar 80W90 and LSD Additive) and Xfer case (Mopar ATF 4) every 20K. I’ll do my transmission full service at 60K. It may be overkill, but fluids are a lot cheaper than replacing the hardware, and I know I always have fresh lubrication and am using the best quality as I do it all myself for my very expensive vehicle (2016 Sahara 75th Anniversary edition).

I change 2 quarts of trans fluid with every oil change to keep it fresh in between pan drops. I bought a case of Mopar ATF 4, and suck out what I can (JK/U has a very shallow pan compared to my Commander), usually about 1.5 - 2 Qts, and replace what I remove + 3-4 oz of “stick around” amount. I do my diffs and Xfer case every 20k miles. Right now, 44K miles on my 2016 JKU, at 60k will drop that pan. I’m surprised there is no screw that holds the filter in place, unless that filter sits on the floor of the pan. Again, I have so much clearance where you have none with the exhaust, I have a 2016 JKU 75th Anniversary Edition. I have like an inch or 2 clearance. I’ll take a pic when I have a chance.

This is what I do: I have the dealer do the pan drop, filter change and pan cleaning. Filter and fluid is good for a VERY long time in my dodge avenger. I ordered 5 qt of mopar aft +4, and used the orange gas siphoned pump to siphon out all the atf I could through the dipstick. Replacing it with new, a week later I did it again with the remaining few quarts. My 2011 dodge avenger now has 172k miles and the atf filter was recently changed. And the fluid is nice and red..it should all last the life of the car, assuming it junks before 250k miles. 350$ I've spent on the transmission, and I shouldn't need to even touch it for a very long time. The atf +4 mopar is an ultra long lasting "fill for life" fluid that the owners manual doesn't say to change until 120k miles . I can confirm its true, I didn't get around to having the dealer tranny service until 145k miles it was dirty they said but everything is just fine..

I am doing my 2010 Rubicon this weekend, however I opted to get a new transmission pan with the drain plug in it to swap out and will be using the lubelocker gasket. Because I saw this video in advance, I also ordered a pneumatic/manual fluid extractor (figured it would be nice to have when servicing my boat as well). I expect it to go much easier now that I saw you go through everything. Thanks!!!!

@@sherifx5122 no, the drain plug is actually facing the oil drain plug (best way I can describe it. For future drains, it will be extremely easy. Only problem I am having with it, is it had a drip coming out for a day or so. Looks like I was able to clamp it down tighter and it seems to have done the trick. Just drove to New Orleans and back (from Florida) and I haven't hit a point that I needed to add fluid yet. I reached out to Dorman about it and they are sending me a different Drain Plug gasket.....so, if you get one, you may want to request the gasket first.....I am not sure why they don't include the new one to begin with.

I just wish they designed a filter system that can be changed without removing the pan, a lot of folks just change the fluid and never the filter, that is the case with a “flush”, which I would never do, better to slowly introduce fluid replacement, especially if you did not replace it for 100-150K miles.

I know your video is a few years old, but I just did my 2013 wrangler, and I noticed in your video that it appears you did not fully seat the filter all the way. There is a notch on the opposite end , that when seated fully, the notch goes in a slot in the transmission and the filter goes up fully touching the bottom of the transmission. I bring this up to you because when I removed my pan, the filter was in the pan, I believe mine was changed by prior owner and did not seat it fully and it fell down.. I believe you may also find yours in the bottom of your pan, if you did not fully seat the filter.

We will do this tomorrow. Question... why did you warm it up to temp, or at all, prior to removing the fluid? You sort of said why in your video, but I guess my real question is, was it still hot or warm when you stuck that tubing into the dipstick hole? I'll be using a standard hand pump siphon (2 hoses, Harbor Freight) and don't think it's a good idea to be sticking that tubing down in there for risk of melting and having potential debris travel down the hole. How long did you let cool down before doing the service?

How is the replacement pan that has a drain plug ? I’m always afraid will be prone to leaking. The JLs do not have a dipstick, supposedly a “sealed” trans, but does have a drain plug. “Sealed” means sealed only up to warranty, then you’re on your own. No such thing as “lifetime” or “sealed” transmissions, change the fluid at least, whether you have a drain plug or at least “suck and replace” via the dipstick tube.

The torque invertor was not drain a tall so is this means having to do oil change 2 time like in one week to make the rest of the oil in torque invertor to be mixed with the first oil change and re-doing oil change again the second week for helping to making sure the oil change is done all over in the transmission itself including torque invertor ?

A "smidge" huh? can't seem to find that measurement scale anywhere :) One thing I found that helps when dealing with any type of oil change is a Large cardboard box under the rig catches that bit of oil that refuses to drip in the catch pan. Also I have found that Simple Green is excellent for cleaning off the oil that gets on the parts you don't want it on like that exhaust piping. I don't understand why there is not a drain plug in the pan like the engine oil drain. Maybe you can tell me why. Decent vid not as in depth as some of your others and it makes me want to take it to a place like AAMCO because I don't want to go through all that laying on my garage floor. Thanks

Great video lots of good details to avoid problems, thank you but I am with the ones in the 30K mile club. for a few reasons one you did not do the converter which is ok if done at 30K in my mind. Also it is just cheap insurance and noticing how dark your fluid was it would have been nice have gotten it out sooner. Thank you again I am at 55K planning for the 2nd change (first was by dealer at 30K). PS side note not sure what year yours jeep is but engine oil spec was changed after 2012 on Pentastar engine from 5W-30 to 5W-20 same engine you can thank CAFE stds for the change. You may want to think about that, I like the idea of a thicker oil film, I am not worried about .01 MPG improvement. The manufacture is not worried about failure or wear after 150K but I am.

JUST bought myself a '14 JKU. 130K miles. Owner stated he never changed trans fluid. Never did any harsh 4-wheelin. Towed a small camper a few times. I've read several posts about NOT changing fluid. That it could cause more damage than good. I'm just an over-achiever and really want to get this remedied. Any thoughts? Partial change, maybe? Thanks in advance and for all your content.

If you look at the service manual, the 60k Mile service is recommended for AT where the vehicle has been used for specific uses (which they outline). If you don’t fall into this category then the suggested maintenance interval is 10 years or 120k miles.

Hey Chris just curious, did you look into doing synthetic fluid as a refill? And is there even such a thing for a transmission? I run Royal Purple in my engine and have been wondering about what to use when I do my transmission. Thanks for all you do buddy!

ATF-4 is a synthetic, I run Royal Purple ATF-MAX in my JKU. Really the only diff between ATF/ATF-3 is ATF-4 is synthetic. So like with RP who's synthetic ATF-MAX doesn't say -4 it still works in -4 applications. And honestly you can't go wrong with Royal Purple, if only they made a engine oil filter for the 3.6 JKs

Thanks for this video, very impressive. I am having difficulty reading the dip stick on my 2016 Wrangler for the auto trans. Did you? It seems as though it never gets between the hot dots or holes in the dip stick. Even after a one hour drive and 45 miles, still does not seem to get to th3 correct position on the dip stick. The Jeep has only 40,000 miles on it. I cannot imagine it lost fluid somehow. I noticed at the end of the video you said you had to add. Is this because your Jeep was also not saturating the lower hole for the hot reading? Maybe we are both in the same boat.

The dip sticks are very hard to read. This is the hardest part of this. There is so much residue it has fluid well above the fill holes, but the fill holes are not full. So I guess I need to add more? This dip stick is very frustrating.
