mounting.
2. Remove the four bolts which secure the mounting
bracket to the body.
19. Detach the driveshaft (prop- shaft) from the transmission
drive flange.
If the transmission is to be refitted, mark the position of
the coupling relative to the drive flange.
19. CAUTION: Under no circ umstances remove the
driveshaft to flexible coupling fixings.
1. Remove the transmission drive flange to flexible
coupling fixings.

20. Lower the transmission unit.

21. Detach the gear selector cable from the transmission unit.
1. Remove the selector cable ball pin to selector lever nut.
2. Lower the transmissi on lift for access.
3. Remove the selector cable to transmission casing bolts.

22. Release the transmission ha rness multiplug bracket.
1. Remove the two bolts which secure the bracket to the
transmission case, noting that one bolt also retains
the dipstick tube.
23. Disconnect the fluid cooler upper pipe.
Remove the bolt which secures the pipe to the cylinder
block and remove the bracket.
Remove the 'banjo' bolt.

Discard the Dowty seals.
Fit blanking plugs to the pipe and transmission.

24. Disconnect the fluid cooler lower pipe.
Remove the 'banjo' bolt.
Discard the Dowty seals.
Fit blanking plugs to the pipe and transmission.

25. Remove the three bolts which se cure the torque converter to
the drive plate.
1. Remove the access cover.
2. Rotate the crankshaft for access to each bolt and hold
to prevent movement. Remove each bolt.

26. Remove the LH and RH cataly st mounting brackets from the
transmission case.
Remove the two bolts from each side.
27. On the RH side, clear the cooler pipe for access.
28. NOTE: Viewed from the rear of the vehicle.
Remove the two upper bolts, as indicated, transmission to
engine.

to damage the shaft or bore diameters.
10. Installation is the reverse of the removal procedure noting
that:

11. Fit the oil seal.
1. Lubricate the housing seal bore.
2. Lubricate the outside diameter of the seal.
3. Using seal replacer 307 - 379, drive the seal squarely into place.

Transmission/Transaxle Cooling - 4.0L NA V8 - AJ27/3.2L NA V8 - AJ26 -
Transmission Cooling
Description and Operation
The transmission fluid cooling system maintains fluid temperature within specified limits.

Parts List
Component Descriptions
The transmission fluid pipes:
Transfer fluid from the transmission to the cooler under the action of the hydraulic system pump. Return the cooled fluid from th e cooler to the transmission.
The transmission fluid cooler:
Is a plate type made from aluminum. Is mounted in the engi ne cooling radiator right-hand end tank.
Overheating Protection
If the engine coolant or transm ission fluid temperatures exceed their predefined limits, th e transmission control module locks
the torque converter clutch. By reducing slip, this minimises th e amount of heat transferred to the engine cooling system from
the transmission fluid.

Transmission/Transaxle Cooling - 4.0L SC V8 - AJ26 - Transmission
Cooling
Description and Operation
The transmission fluid cooling system maintains the fluid temperature within specified limits. The cooling element is located
in the engine cooling radiator LH end tank.
Fluid is circulated, under pressure, by the transmission pump to the cooler.
General Layout

Overheating Protection
If the engine coolant or transmission fluid temperatures exceed their predefined limits, the transmission control module
locks the torque converter clutch . By reducing slip, this minimises the amount of heat transferred to the engine cooling
system from the transmission fluid.
