Transmission-Cooler Flushing Kit
AFFECTED VEHICLE RANGE:
All vehicles equipped with automatic transmissions
SITUATION:
CONTAMINATION OF REPLACEMENT TRANSMISSION
When a transmission is replaced, it is possible that contaminants present in transmission lines and cooler as the result of mechanical failure, could
damage the replacement transmission.
RESOLUTION:
FLUSH TRANSMISSION LINES AND COOLER
NOTE:
Use of the flushing kit will be authorized by the Technical HelpLine when an ATER authorization is made for vehicles covered by warranty.
To prevent premature failure of a replacement transmission, the lines and cooler must be flushed to remove any contaminants remaining from the
damaged unit. A transmission cooler flushing kit has been developed, and should be used before installation of a replacement transmission required as
the result of mechanical failure.
