I was looking for 2002 45RFE transmission slippage causes (loose bands, bad solenoids, bad fluid) when this video had popped up on my feed. This is a great instructional video for those who need to know how to change their transmission filter and fluid. But, I see one issue that was not mentioned, well maybe two. One; inspect the bottom of the pan for shiny flakes or chunks of metal. That is aluminum shavings which indicate that something is rubbing on the transmission body. Two; inspect the debris attached to the magnet BEFORE removing it to clean. Blackish fuzz is normal, shiny metal flakes indicate a possible issue of metal on metal grinding or shaving. I'd like to add that IF you use any type of RTV, DO NOT use too much! Excess squeezed to the inside of the pan lip can break loose and plug up ports, although the filter *should* prevent that from happening. Carry on.
I really appreciate your channel. These are great steps for me to begin. However, I am tired of paying for a mechanic and would rather put that money into my family's mutual fund. Hence, any tutorials on repairing a Jeep Liberty 2008-2015 would be ideal. They are scarce. Thanks in advance.
I know how you feel. 1AAuto is my #1 place for jeep liberty repair videos atm. They have videos for everything I look up from differential to waterpump to transmission etc.
I'd like to see a video that includes evacuating the fluid in the torque converter and cooler for a full fluid change, along with the Quick Learn procedure with the scan tool or a DIY equivalent of that procedure.
***** often does not seal well and leaks. and you can pump 2 quarts or more fluid out every oil change until you get to 14 quARTS and at least you know it's running fresh. Get a break pump or a genereal pump or fluid adder at the auto store or AMAZon for about $20-30$$$. easy way

Hey Can someone help me? My jeep always stops trying to accelerate passdd 40 to 50 mph and I have to let off the gas and then press back down and it goes but I think it's the transmission slipping. I checked the fluid but I think it's fine but it might actually be too dark I'd have to check again.
I believe that when you remove the old tranny oil from the tranny oil pan and the take off the tranny oil filter...whatever comes out is pretty much what you replace back into the dipstick thingy.. If you're unsure how much you just drained just dump your old tranny oil into a gallon milk jug or a container with some kind of Quart measurement on it. After you get an idea how much you drained you are ready to replace the filter, clean the pan, scrape the old gasket gunk off, clean that nasty magnet then put it back into the pan, bolt the pan back into place also making sure you did not forget to position the gasket AND bead it with that RTV stuff. If you are still unsure how much of the old tranny oil came out, seek assistance from the eye doctor. Nah, just jivin'. You'll see what comes out, com'on. Then start your vehicle and measure how much you need (at engine HOT level). Add what was lost. Done. Drive. :) Just to be sure how much tranny oil is supposed to go into your vehicle, check with the manual as well, fluid section.
Alfies Designer Shoppe most dodges require you check them in neutral. “What!!!??, no way!!!!?” Go look at your dipstick and see what’s on it. Almost all dodge vehicles will show overfull in park....

Rob are these Liberties outfitted with Aisin transmissions?
Hi. It's a good guide, buy many Jeep Liberties does not have a deepstick. You should include that variation too.
Good Job Guys but i have question How much transmission fluid does it take ?
I swapped my factory trans cover for an aftermarket unit with a drain bolt, now i can drain and fill sooo easy, easier than an oil change now!!
Still having good luck with this? Where did you buy it from?
Yes. I agree. I recommend using the transmission gasket. They sell plenty of them. The paste is not secure enough and can cause leaking.
I really appreciate your channel. These are great steps for me to begin. However, I am tired of paying for a mechanic and would rather put that money into my family's mutual fund. Hence, any tutorials on repairing a Jeep Liberty 2008-2015 would be ideal. They are scarce. Thanks in advance.
