Just followed this video to do my R34 trans flush! Awesome! Only concern i had was waiting for the Permatex gasket sealer to dry before installing the transmission pan - i did NOT do this. (Neither did you, but like you said, the trans filter is packaged in oxidizing-protection paper which makes me think it would have oxidized if i left it exposed to air for the 24 hours Permatex says to dry for). I've run the car for 30 min since then and the gasket is holding. Also only other concern i had was that since you add trans fluid through the dipstick at some point, gotta make sure the dipstick is "dry" afterwards, otherwise the fluid level will give a false reading Not sure i'll ever use that mini beam-style torque wrench again but...oh well I flushed about 14 total litres through it, maybe overkill, but i'm about to drive the car tomorrow. We'll see if there was an improvement.
Awesome video as always It's great to see an RE4R01B actually get serviced and even greater to see it recorded for others to learn, you say you'll go manual once the AB switch goes bad but you might be waiting a while because they're very reliable and if they're serviced they might aswell be bulletproof!
Thanks - its going well so far so keeping my fingers crossed and yes hoping it encourages others to have a crack at servicing - its easy once someone lays it out for you.
Nice video Cam. I know "car" people understand how important clean ATF is to the proper functioning of a transmission. This was very educational and not scary - you can do it yourself, which is one of the purposes of your channel. I still think the people who create these transmissions are from another planet. So very complex. Thanks and come on 10K!
You know what's worse? They don't even match! Ones a Xenon and ones not, and has different colour internals. Will sort them out when I do the gtr conversion. 👍
