Q: How to replace the Oil Pump on the 5L40-E automatic transmission on Cadillac SRX?
A: Start the transmission bypass valve replacement on 5l40-e automatic transmissions by elevating your vehicle then positioning a suitable catch pan beneath it. First detach the transmission oil cooler lines from the bypass valve by unbolt its connection and additionally undo the oil cooler line retainer engine block bolt to place the lines safely aside. You should detach and set aside the oxygen sensor wire harness bracket when it is attached to the bypass valve stud. The transmission bypass valve retaining bolt/stud needs removal before extracting the bypass valve from its transmission position. The first step for installation requires you to place new seals onto the transmission bypass valve before you put the bypass valve back in its place. Place the bypass valve bolt or stud into position before tightening it to 25 nm (18 ft. Lbs.) and put back the oxygen sensor wire harness bracket to the stud when applicable. Reinstall the brake caliper but position the oil cooler line bracket against the engine block and link up transmission oil cooler lines with the bypass valve and remove the drain pan while lowering the car. Conclude transmission filling process per specifications then do a leak inspection.
