I couldn't decide which option I wanted, so that's why i removed the thermostatic spring valve behind the plastic end plug. This is an observation since the removal.
The valve controls the flow from both the heater and the cooler. When removed the transmission gets FULL flow heat and FULL flow...
I removed the thermostat valve, I wanted to see what would happen before I installed the revmax retrofit. I have driven about 100 miles since removed and haven't gotten a CEL yet.
Mufflex makes kits for the drone suppression. I myself made my own j-pipe very similar to their kit. I was able to reduce the drone at certain rpms, but it wasn't enough. The range at which it controls the drone is very narrow. Ultimately, I switched from the mufflex DOD24 with the j-pipe to...
I've flushed ws fluid from my Toyota before. That came out really clean looking at 60k miles.
When I first drained the 8 speed I wasn't expecting it to be so dark. When I saw it just as dark again, I didn't account for the dye affecting the appearance of the fluid. It did smell like fresh...
Thanks for the advice, I'm doing some research on fitment. I had read a review that the stock y-pipe had to be removed then reinstalled. I was hoping it would clear with stock setup, but I may have a muffler shop readjust that pipe lower. I do plan on getting long tubes,but that's way down...
Yes samples from 8 speed. The fluid doesn't smell burnt but it's too dark for my liking. I really want to change the pan next along with the filter. I'm looking at a PPE aluminum pan with extra capacity and replaceable filter.
I went ahead and did another drain and fill. It's been 5k miles since the last one (at 30k miles with D6 fluid). I followed the advice to lift the rear end to level the transmission. I was able to get an extra 1/2 -3/4qt, by raising the rear end about 3 ft!. I've driven the truck for a week...
I remember having the bump when you come to a stop like its been described on the forum somewhere, but I think that was due to my shift relearn.(I disconnected the battery for a few hours for the relearn) The bump disappeared after some time and I don’t notice it anymore.
I checked the fluid level with the truck standing on its own.(no jacks) I wanted the the fluid be set to the point at which it would always be when operating... truth be told, I didn’t know about the procedure of leveling the trans by lifting the rear until after I changed my fluid. So far the...
Yes, factor fill at 30k mi. Mostly highway driving with no towing. (I average 20k miles a year) I performed a drain and fill with redline d6 after I took that sample and expect to do another at 50k mi.
Corsa is louder at cold start. Any other time they are both the same.
I liked the sound of the magnaflow, has a deeper tone. Corsa technology filters out the deep tones. The best way to put it; magnaflow sounds like a growling beast, corsa sounds like a wildcat.
The tech put into making the...
