Service Information: Disassembly

NOTE: If the transmission is being reconditioned (clutch/seal replacement) or replaced, it is necessary to perform the TCM Adaptation Procedure using the scan tool (Refer to ELECTRICAL/ELECTRONIC CONTROL MODULES/TRANSMISSION CONTROL MODULE - STANDARD PROCEDURE) .
NOTE: Tag all clutch pack assemblies, as they are removed, for reassembly identification.

  8. Place the transmission in PARK to prepare for the removal of the output shaft nut.
  9. Remove the nut, with a 30 mm 12 point socket, holding the propeller shaft flange to the output shaft and remove the flange.
  10. Remove the transmission rear oil seal with a suitable slide hammer and screw.
  11. Remove the transmission output shaft washer. Be sure to tag the washer since it is very similar to the geartrain end-play shim and they must not be interchanged.
  12. Remove the transmission rear output shaft bearing retaining ring (1). See Fig 4.

    NOTE: Due to production variations in the bearing, it may not be possible to slide the collar fully downward. It is only necessary to slide the collar down far enough that the fingers securely grasp the inner bearing race.
  14. Slide the collar (3) on the Bearing Remover 9082 (1) downward over the fingers (4) of the tool. See Fig 6.

  17. Remove the bolts holding the transmission housing to the converter housing from inside the converter housing.
  18. Stand the transmission upright on the converter housing. Be sure to use suitable spacers between the bench surface and the converter housing since the input shaft protrudes past the front surface of the housing.
  19. Remove the remaining bolts holding the transmission housing to the converter housing.
  20. Remove the transmission housing from the converter housing.
  21. Remove output shaft with center and rear gear set and clutch K3 (3). See Fig 8.
  22. Remove thrust needle bearing (4) and thrust washer (5). See Fig 8.
  23. Remove input shaft with clutch K2 and front gear set (6).
  24. Remove clutch K1 (1).

  25. Unscrew Torx socket bolts (4) and remove oil pump (6). Screw two opposed bolts into the oil pump housing and press the oil pump out of the converter housing by applying light blows with a plastic hammer. See Fig 9.
  26. Remove and discard the torque converter hub seal and the oil pump outer o-ring seal from the oil pump.
  27. Unscrew Torx socket bolts (1) and remove multiple-disc holding clutch B1 (5) from converter housing. Screw two opposed bolts into the multiple-disc holding clutch B1 (5) and separate from the converter housing by applying light blows with a plastic hammer. See Fig 9.
  28. Detach intermediate plate (3) from converter housing (2). See Fig 9.

  29. Remove multiple-disc pack B3 (2) and spring washer (3) by removing snap-ring (1) in transmission housing. To facilitate removal of the snap-ring (1), compress the multiple-disc pack B3 (2). Note which clutch disc is removed just prior to the spring washer (3) for re-assembly. If the clutch discs are re-used, this disc must be returned to its original position on top of the spring washer. See Fig 10.
  30. Unscrew Torx socket bolts (7). See Fig 10.
  31. Remove multiple-disc holding clutch B2 (4) from transmission housing. The externally toothed disc carrier for multiple-disc holding clutch B2 is also the piston for multiple-disc holding clutch B3. See Fig 10.
  32. Remove parking lock gear (5). See Fig 10.
