THE MOST detailed and clear explanation of this procedure. A few things have changed since this was published. There's an updated Mobil 1 trans fluid. Looks the same as the one he showed but it has a blue label. Still the LV ATF HP but less hydroscopic. Which is what was causing the shudder to begin with. There's also a lower temp range that GM put out. It's 93F - 113F. I use the higher range of 131F - 149F. That is now considered the track range.

My ATF fluid research has led me to discover the following information. I document it here as well as on several Wikipedia pages I created/modified on Dexron, Mercon, Mopar, and Toyota automatic transmission fluids. In 1967, Ford produced the Type-F fluid specification. The Type-F specification was intended to produce a "lifetime" fluid which would never need to be changed. This was the first of many Ford “lifetime” fluids. The 1974 Ford Car Shop Manual reads "The automatic transmission is filled at the factory with "lifetime" fluid. If it is necessary to add or replace fluid, use only fluids which meet Ford Specification M2C33F. Many other transmission manufacturers have followed with their own "Lifetime" automatic transmission fluids". GM's first "Lifetime" ATF was the Dexron-VI specification. How ATF Can Last a "Lifetime? To understand how a fluid can last a "lifetime", a study of the 1939 Chrysler Fluid Drive Fluid is helpful. The November 1954 edition of Lubrication Magazine (Published by The Texas Company, later known as Texaco) featured a story called "Evolution of the Chrysler PowerFlite Automatic Transmission." This article described the fluid used in the 1939 Chrysler Fluid Drive and its subsequent revisions and enhancements through 1954.'' A section of the feature described the lubrication of the Fluid Drive's fluid coupling, it reads ''"The fluid drive fluid coupling is partially filled with Mopar Fluid Drive Fluid, a special highly refined straight mineral oil with a viscosity of about 185 SUS at 100° F., excellent inherent oxidation stability, high viscosity index (100), excellent ability to rapidly reject air, very low natural pour point (-25° F.) , ability to adequately lubricate the pilot ball bearing and seal surface, and neutrality towards the seal bellows. '' The fluid operates under almost ideal conditions in what is essentially a hermetically sealed case, the small amount of atmospheric oxygen initially present is removed by a harmless reaction with the fluid so as to leave a residual inert (nitrogen) atmosphere. As a consequence it has not been necessary to drain and replace the fluid, and the level-check recommendation has been successively extended from the original 2,500 miles to 15,500 miles and finally to "never" - or the life of the car.'' ''Since drains and level checks were not only unnecessary but frequently harmful ( through the introduction of more air, and seal-destroying dirt) Chrysler eventually left off the tempting level inspection plugs. This mechanism is therefore one of the very few that is actually lubricated for the life of the car. There are now myriad examples of couplings that have operated well over 100,000 miles without any attention whatsoever and were still in perfect condition when the car was retired."'' The lesson learned by Chrysler with their fluid drives is applicable to modern automatic transmissions as well. Sealed Transmissions Any automatic transmission fluid will last longer if the transmission case could be hermetically sealed, but transmissions typically have two potential entry points for air: 1. The Dipstick Tube - Any transmission with a dipstick tube has the potential to let additional oxygen into the transmission through a dipstick that is not fully seated in the tube, or dipstick tube plug that is not fully seated. Even the process of checking the fluid level with a dipstick can allow additional oxygen and dirt into the transmission. Many modern transmissions do not have a dipstick, they have sealed transmission fluid level check plugs instead. By removing the traditional dipstick, the transmission manufacturer has also removed a potential entry point for oxygen; this reduces the potential for fluid oxidation. A sealed transmission will typically have longer transmission fluid life than a non-sealed transmission. 2. The Transmission Vent - Transmissions need vents to compensate for internal air pressure changes that occur with fluctuating fluid temperatures and fluctuating fluid levels during transmission operation. Without those vents, pressure could build resulting in seal and gasket leaks. Before the use of better quality base oil in ATF in the late 1990's, some older transmission breather vents contained a Transmission Air Breathing Suppressor (TABS) valve to prevent oxygen and water ingestion into their transmissions. Oxygen reacts with high temperature transmission fluid and can cause oxidation, rust, and corrosion. Automatic transmission fluids using lower quality base oil oxidized more easily than fluids using higher quality base oils. GM, and other transmission manufacturers now use smaller, remote mounted, breather vents specially designed to keep out water, but allow the a small amount of air movement through the breather as necessary. Sealed ATF Containers Any automatic transmission fluid will last longer if it comes from an unopened container 1. Use Sealed Containers - Containers storing automatic transmission fluid (ATF) should always be sealed; if exposed to the atmosphere, ATF may absorb moisture and potentially cause shift concerns. 2 '''Use New Fluid Only - When performing repairs on ATF equipped transmissions, it is important to use only new, clean ATF when refilling the transmission. Never reuse ATF. Example Maintenance Schedule GM Lifetime automatic transmission fluids made from higher quality base oil and an additive package are more chemically stabile, less reactive, and do not experience oxidation as easily as lower quality fluids made from lower quality base oil and an additive package. Therefore, higher quality transmission fluids can last a long time in normal driving conditions (Typically 100,000 miles (160,934 km) or more). The definition of 'Lifetime Fluid" differs from transmission manufacturer to transmission manufacturer. Always consult the vehicle maintenance guide for the proper service interval for the fluid in your transmission and your driving conditions. 2018 Chevrolet Colorado Example: According to the Scheduled Maintenance Guide of a 2018 Chevrolet Colorado with "Lifetime Fluid" could have two different fluid service intervals depending upon how the vehicle is driven: See my.chevrolet.com/learn/2018/Colorado 1. Normal Driving - Carry passengers and cargo within recommended limits on the Tire and Loading Information label - Driven on reasonable road surfaces within legal driving limits. Under "Normal" driving conditions, the automatic transmission fluid and filter never needs to be changed. 2. Severe Driving - Mainly driven in heavy city traffic in hot weather - Mainly driven in hilly or mountainous terrain - Frequently towing a trailer - Used for high speed or competitive driving - Used for taxi, police, or delivery service. Under "Severe" driving conditions, replace automatic transmission fluid and filter every 45,000 mi (72,420 km)

I was one of the 'shudder' 8-speed owners and it occured within the first year of ownership. The Mobil 1 fluid swap was done under warranty by the dealer and it immediately took care of the problem. Here I am down the road thinking about replacing the fluid as a preventive since I plan to keep this vehicle several more years with the current market on auto prices. Your video was extremely informative and much appreciated!

The trick is to find a technician who cares enough to do it correctly.

The fluid in the 10 speeds exit the transmission and flow to the two fluid coolers first (one in radiator and one aux plate type) then to the diff cooler and back to the transmission.

I will still buy GM products and this Camaro is awesome, I don't see any problem at all doing these little maintenance checks such as lifting the vehicle and being sure it's level. Besides, chicks love to watch guys "do stuff" and you never know, the girls in the neighborhood might be impressed with you working on your own car AND knowing what you're doing!!

I'll add, that the Mobile 1 LV ATF HP is now, finally being send to all GM dealers to finally fix the shuddering AT of the Colorado. They are literally sending 55 gallon drums of this stuff along with a new Bosch tool kit to flush/decontaminate the transmission. What's frustrating is thousands of trucks have been in/out of shops for ongoing shuddering problems and here you are talking about the fix 18 months ago.

I'd suspect its because they may expect you to change the internal filter when you change the fluid, so by not having a drain plug, they try to force you to drop the pan to do the change, and if you went to the effort to drop the pan, you should change the filter while you are in there.

my dad was john kelley ...I had the fluid you said changed per 16-na-175 on 8l90 transmission...The shudder is gone I feel..They said check it for 200 miles ..It has 4,000 miles on 8l90...Some it works others it comes back others they just replaced the TC ..Rumor is GM is on its 3rd TC rev in 3 years..Rumor said problem goes to SLIP VALUES are to aggressive causing wear on TC...Some said go to aftermarket TC...So far my 3 time change of fluid at 1 visit with MOBIL 1 LV ATF HP FLUID as you said has worked....

There's a youtube video of a guy that added a B&M dipstick to his Colorado. Even just for the filling part, this eliminates that issue of lying in the driveway pumping 6+ bottles of fluid back up into that upper fill plug...my dipstick is already in the mail. Pricey, but should be worth it.

Mr Kelly, Maybe you will agree with me? I chose the median temperature for my 6L50 trans. The service manual recommends opening the Check-Level Plug at 30C to 50C , so I picked 40C . My results were very good. I used a full syn Dex 6. Thanks for sharing your info.

I was considering an R&R of one of the cooler lines on my Cadillac myself. After watching this procedure I think I'll let the dealer do the work.

Same kind of setup for my '18 Colorado, though I wish it had a dipstick. Hopfully, they won't do away with the oil dipstick.

Your video blew me away! Well done well explained and the task is NOT for the faint of heart. Luckily I don’t own any of those vehicles. However , I am going to change the atf fluid in my 2016 Chevy Colorado z71. I’m only planning on doing the fluid change on the transfer case. After watching your video I’m wondering if it’s going to be as intricate as this. I already did the front and rear differential fluid changes and they were really straight forward. I’m using AMSOIL synthetic fluids and that’s what I plan on using in the transfer case. ( AMSOIL ATF signature series ).

Hey john, do you know if the temps are the same with 4wd trucks. I bought a 2019 Silverado with 5.3l 8L90 4x4. I wanted to know this info before 30k.
