• Q: How to service and repair the Automatic Transmission Filter and seal on 2007 Chevrolet Cobalt?

  A: Services or repairs of the automatic transmission fluid filter and seal must start with lifting the vehicle while providing suspension support. Fit a drain pan beneath the transaxle Oil Pan before you remove the bolts starting from the front side and then proceeding to the rear bolts by turning them four times. Use a rubber mallet to tap the Oil Pan while draining fluid and then check the fluid appearance. Next disconnect the Oil Pan bolts before removing the Oil Pan while also taking off its gasket. A long screwdriver should help pry the oil filter neck out of its seal to check for any damage or signs of wear present on the seal. The j 6125-1b (J 6125-1B Slide Hammer) and the j 23129 (J 23129 Axle Boot Remover) should be used to detach the seal if needed. A technician should coat the new oil filter seal with j 36850 or petroleum jelly before setting a new filter inside the case. Install the Oil Pan Gasket while using an entirely new gasket when the sealing ribs show any signs of damage. Begin by cleaning the Oil Pan and checking for any damage before replacing if needed and complete installation of the Oil Pan while tightening its bolts to 10 n.m (89 lb in). Before lowering the vehicle complete fluid transfer and check for leaks around the pan simultaneously performing another fluid measurement check.
