Automatic Transmission – 4L60E – On-vehicle Servicing Page 7C4–5
2 Maintenance Operations
2.1 Transmission Fluid
When adding or changing the transmission fluid, use only the recommended automatic transmission fluid, refer to
0B Maintenance and Lubrication.
For the automatic transmission fluid diagnosis, refer to 7C3 Automatic Transmission – 4L60E – Hydraulic and
Mechanical Diagnosis.
Transmission Fluid Colour
New transmission fluid is red in colour due to a dye that is added to the fluid so it can be distinguished from other oils and
lubricants. The red dye is not permanent and as such, is not an indicator of the quality of the fluid.
As the vehicle is driven the transmission fluid will quickly look darker in colour and appear to be a light brown. A dark
brown colour with a distinctively burnt odour may indicate fluid deterioration and the need for fluid replacement.
NOTE
A dark brown fluid colour observed, coupled with
a reported delayed shift pattern may only indicate
that fluid replacement is required. This is not a
definite indication of a potential transmission
failure.
Transmission Fluid Level
NOTE
Carry out this operation with the transmission at
normal operating temperature (82 – 94°C), as the
temperature greatly affects the fluid level.
1 Drive the vehicle for a distance of at least 25 km to bring the transmission up to normal operating temperature.
If the transmission is not at normal operating
temperature and the correct procedure is not
followed, the result could be a false reading of
the fluid level on the transmission fluid
indicator.
2 If the vehicle has been operated under any of the following conditions, switch the engine off and allow the transmission to cool for approximately thirty minutes:
• in high ambient temperatures above 32° C,
• at sustained high speeds,
• in heavy stop / start city traffic during hot weather, or
• towing.
3 Park the vehicle on level ground.
4 Move the gear selector to the Park position and apply the park brake.
5 Allow the engine to idle for 3 minutes with the accessories turned off.

3 Lubricate a new oil filter seal (1) with clean
transmission fluid and install into the oil pump bore (2)
using a suitable sized socket or piece of tubing.
4 Install a new filter into the transmission case.
5 Check if the magnet is functional and located in the designated position in the oil pan. Install a new gasket
and reinstall the oil pan.
6 Tighten the bolts attaching the oil pan to the correct torque specification.

7 Lower vehicle and add approximately 4.8 litres of automatic transmission fluid.
8 Operate the vehicle for about 24 km or until normal transmission operating temperature is reached, refer to 2.1 Transmission Fluid.
9 Ensure there are no fluid leaks from the oil pan area, rectify as required.
10 Check and top up the transmission fluid to the correct level as required, refer 2.1 Transmission Fluid.

12 Road test until the transmission has reached operating temperature. Re-check the fluid level and for any fluid leaks
from the oil pan area, refer to 2.1 Transmission Fluid.
3.14 Control Valve Body
Remove
1 Partially remove the control valve body harness until it hangs from the pass-thru connector, refer to
3.13 Control Valve Body Harness.
2 Remove the three long bolts (1) and the two short bolts (2) attaching the transmission fluid pressure
(TFP) manual valve position switch assembly (3),
remove the switch and discard the shield (4).
3 Remove the attaching bolt (5) and the manual detent spring (6).
Figure 7C4 – 37
In the following procedure support the
control valve body before removing the last
bolt.
NOTE
The removal may be more manageable by
removing the bolts in a spiral pattern starting
from the outside, removing the centre bolt last.
4 Remove the fourteen remaining bolts (1) attaching the control valve body.

tighten the three attaching bolts (1) to the correct
torque specification.

11 Reinstall the control valve body, refer to 3.14 Control Valve Body.
12 Reinstall the Oil pan and filter and fill the transmission with the recommended automatic transmission fluid,
refer to 3.1 Fluid Change and Filter Replacement.
13 Lower vehicle to the ground.
14 Road test until the transmission has reached operating temperature. Re-check the fluid level and for any fluid
leaks from the oil pan area, refer to 2.1 Transmission
Fluid.

3.16 Filler Tube and Breather Hose
Remove
NOTE
The breather hose and/or vent pipe can be
removed independently from the filler tube as
described in step 7.
Disconnection of the battery affects certain
vehicle electronic systems. Refer to 6D1-3
Battery, before disconnecting the battery.
1 Disconnect the battery ground lead.
2 Release the lock down lever (1) and remove the transmission fluid level indicator from the filler tube (2).
Figure 7C4 – 56
3 Remove the bolt (1) attaching the filler tube (2) to the side of the right-hand cylinder head, refer to Figure 7C4 – 57.
4 Using a twisting and pulling motion, remove the filler tube from the seal (3) in the transmission case.
