  Q: How to Service the Automatic Transmission Filter for the 4T40-E/4T45-E on Chevrolet Cavalier?

  A: Service of the fluid filter for the 4t40-e/4t45-e starts by raising the vehicle with support and placing a drain pan below the transaxle oil pan. The proper technique for oil pan bolt removal is essential to minimize damage of sealing surfaces which protects against oil leakage. Remove engine oil pan bolts from the front side while leaving the rear bolts loosened by four turns each. Use either a rubber mallet to tap or wording force to get fluid drainage from the oil pan before inspecting its fluid color. First remove all remaining oil pan bolts from the pan before pulling out both the oil pan and Oil Pan Gasket. A long screwdriver should be used to free the oil filter neck seal while you check for damage or wear on the oil filter seal. The removal of the seal will require the j6125-1b and j23129 tools. Begin installation by covering a fresh seal with petroleum jelly before inserting it into the mounting position while placing an authentic filter within the housing. The procedure includes gasket installation while using a fresh gasket when seal ribs experience damage. After cleaning and drying the oil pan technicians should inspect the unit for possible replacement because of damage. The installation requires using 16 nm (12 ft. Lbs.) torque to fasten the oil pan bolts. Refill the transaxle with dexron iii or equivalent fluid at the correct level. Afterward check the transmission fluid measurement and look for leakages from the pan.
