How to replace the Automatic Transmission Filter on Chevrolet Blazer?

Question

Accepted Answer

Support and raise the vehicle next to an appropriate drain pan positioned underneath the transmission oil pan. The transmission oil pan can be lowered by unscrewing its Drain Plug if present along with removing bracket bolts to hold the range selector cable bracket out of the way but keeping the cable intact. Focus on removing bolts from the front and side sections of the oil pan while releasing the rear bolts by four turns. A rubber mallet tapping motion will help the oil pan to release and drain fluid before removing the last bolts that detach the oil pan together with its gasket. Grasp the filter firmly before twisting it to remove and subsequently remove the filter seal while pliers may be needed to dislodge possible seals. Begin by removing the rubber seal. Later on, check the fluid state along with the filter for both clutch material debris as well as bronze slivers and steel particles. Immerse the transmission case and oil pan gasket surfaces using solvent until all remnants of old gasket material are completely gone. Found the new filter seal in automatic transmission fluid and hand-position it correctly inside the transmission case using appropriate socket tools. Install the new filter before putting on the oil pan with its new gasket while tightening the transmission case bolts to 11 nm (97 inch lbs.) in a alternating and even manner. The range selector cable bracket should be reinstalled with its bolts secured to 25 nm (18 ft. Lbs.). Treat the oil pan Drain Plug threads with gm p/n 12346004 sealant before installing the plug by tightening it to 18 nm (13 ft. Lbs.). Lower the vehicle while adding dexron iii transmission fluid to achieve the proper fluid level but check the cold fluid level first during the first fill-up and inspect the oil pan gasket for any signs of leaking.
