How to replace the transmission pan on Chevrolet Suburban 1500?

Question

Accepted Answer

The first step to replace the Oil Pan begins with raising the vehicle before measuring transmission fluid loss because fluid in good condition can be reused. Transferring fluid from the Oil Pan requires you to remove Drain Plug and Drain Plug seal so the fluid flows into a suitable receptacle. Examine the fluid that drained while it is in the container. You should then take off 12 bolts that secure the Oil Pan before taking away the Oil Pan itself with its gasket. Read and analyze the magnet during inspection for the presence of big metal fragments because they show that the transmission might require new transmission units. You should keep the suction filter and seal in place when performing Oil Pan or gasket replacement alone. Pull suction filter straight down from its main housing position until you remove the old suction seal and filter provided you need to replace them. Remove all gasket residue from the main housing before eradicating any scratches that might create leakage. Install a new seal on the tube of suction filter before placing the filter and seal into the seal bore of the main housing. The seal must include its shoulder on the suction filter tube before insertion. Position the two m8 x 1.25 headless guide bolts in opposite Oil Pan mounting face corners before placing the gasket properly aligned to bolt holes. Position the gasket together with the Oil Pan securely over the guide bolts while securing them in position before applying two bolts. Complete installation of 12 bolts by tightening them to 27 nm (20 ft. Lbs.) before reattaching the Drain Plug with its seal and finally tightening the Drain Plug to 35 nm (26 ft. Lbs.). Perform fluid refilling of dexroniii automatic transmission fluid after lowering the vehicle while acknowledging that transmission cavities and external circuits contain remaining fluid despite the draining process. Inspect the transmission fluid level in the final step.
