- I changed the transmission fluid and filter on a 2008 Pontiac Vibe. 2003-2008 Pontiac Vibe's share the same A246E Toyota automatic transmissions with the 2003-2007 Toyota Matrix (with VVT-i Engine). In this video I used Mobil 1 3309 Automatic Transmission Fluid, and a PowerTorque Automatic Transmission Filter Kit that includes the gasket. Good luck on your project!

I have a 2003 toyota matrix. 289k miles on it. The transmission calls for no service, saids right on the transmission dip stick. But I do a drain and fill every 60k, no filter replacement. I been using Valvoline Multi-Vehicle synthetic transmission fluid. The transmission shifts very smooth.
I bought my Vibe new in 2007. It now has 98,000 miles and still runs like new. I drain my transmission pan every year. Every other year I drop the pan and remove the screen filter and clean it with brake cleaner. It is so easy to do the transmission drain and replacement procedure. I am sure the 4-speed automatic transmission will last the life of the car. It is too bad so many manufactures are going to CVT transmissions. I want nothing to do with one of those weenie transmissions. I guess if you like your driving experience mundane, then a CVT transmission is right up your ally. Long live the transmission that shifts.
Nice calm vid without BS!
beautifully done video. pacing is so nice
thank you so much , you save me a lot of money
A lot of stuff isn’t done properly.
1. Mention to tighten the bolts after dropping the pan for “crispier shift”
2. Don’t need to spray transmission with that much brake cleaner
3. Use owners manual for correct fluid amount instead of using barbaric gallon method (3.2 qts for Your Vibe)
4. Use proper type fluid again owners manual (ATF TYPE- T IV)
I was just thinking that he might have cross-contaminated the new oil with the old... what if there was some debris in the old oil? Other than that, good video
dude, your such a little whining bitch!
Come on man...Barbarians never serviced their vehicles.
Nor did they have owners manuals.. or scrolls or whatever.... I think that a sure fire way to put back what you took out Is to measure it as shown.
Gallon jugs are cheap. You could always use a second clean one
Cool. I do a transmission, differential and transfer case drain and fill every 30k Miles. Never dropped the pan. My 2006 Matrix has over 213,000 miles and shifts perfect. Type 4 oe fluid for ATF and Mobil 1 gear oil for gearboxes.
I'm impressed! You do a thorough excellent job at showing and explaining everything! You are awesome! Like and subscribed.
Good vedio.
Well done vid. I'm not sure why the "Remember this milk jug" was above the mark made?
Should I torque down the filter bolts? I don’t have the right torque wrench for it, doesn’t go down to 89 inch pounds only 10 ft pounds. Can’t quite get the right number with my torque wrench
So my 2004 Pontiac vibe has 236,000 miles on it and to my knowledge it has never had any transmission maintenance done to it. Should I or should I not change the filter and put some fresh fluid in it? I’ve been getting mixed information saying once it’s gone that long if you change it you might start having slipping gears what do you think about that?
If it’s not slipping or acting like it’s about to go you can change it
i have a 2007 Pontiac vibe with 175815 miles on it, i was thinking about doing a transmission service but im not sure what fluid to use, some videos recommend Dexron VI while some recommend t-IV. any suggestions
I know this video is a few years old but one question: the sealer is a good idea to hold the gasket to the pan during installation. What sealer did you use?
Use a black general purpose RTV. Will work just fine. One other option that will also typically work is to press the pan bolts thru the holes in the pan and into the gasket holes. Often the gasket holes are just about the same OD as the bolt and thus will hold the bolts in place for you while you raise the pan into position and then you can start threading each bolt a little until all of the them are started.
Permatex High Tack (Spray-A-Gasket) Sealant #80064
Hello, could you give me the numbers of the gasket and the oil filter of the box, best regards. I live in Poland and in automotive stores I already got two bad filters: D and bowl seals
I've heard of these transmissions lasting for 200,000 miles with no servicing. Change the fluid every 30,000 miles and they should last for 500,000 miles.
Yea lol I was gonna say, changing it that often ensures it'll last forever.
My 2006 vibe has 187k miles and the fluid has never been changed and it shifts like it did when it was new.
8:48 why is the oil level on the jug now over your marked line?
bl8danjil just refer to owners manual. I dunno what this guy is doing but the manual says 3.2 quarts with ATF TYPE - T IV fluid
I was just wondering if it normal to get a higher reading directly after you shut the motor off as opposed to before. Mine comes to the first hot line while running and right after I shut it off it shows it's passed the 2nd hot line. I used 4 and half quarts to fill mine back up.
Reads higher after shutoff because it’s draining from torque converter and made to be read while running
@@KollynJ thanks but I was talking about after running for a while enough to become very hot.
Every 30k? My first atf change was at 180k. I am about to do the next at 299k. After that I will do another one at 299k as the odometer doesn't run past 299999.
Does the transmission still work?! Im wanting to do the same at 222k miles
@@FinDleer yes currently driving it as I am typing this
@@FinDleer It was a complete flush but if your worried put a small bottle of lucas atf with it.
@@theschuckles2076 how did it go after the complete flush? Would you recommend complete flush or just filter and fluid drain
@@KollynJ It drives great. I currently putting over 500 miles week traveling for work.
Transmission got CRC'd to the gills 😬
Whats the bolt size for the transmission oil pan?
Its a toyota so get metrics, probably 10mm
14 for drain plug (i know the oil is 14mm)
Is it a good idea to change my Transmission fluid 03 Corolla with 68K?
Yes, time to change because the fluid is nearly 20 years old. Transmission fluid often absorbs water from the air. The toyotas from that generation were not “sealed” transmissions.
I have a 1999 Corolla with nearly 280K miles on it and am about to hire a local 'mobile mechanic' to lift the car and change the ATF and filter...
How was it after the change, Had the fluid ever been changed before?
@@KollynJ I do not know; I never could get a 'mobile mechanic' to do the job.
How many qts of oil you used
3.2 q
You get more fluid out if you extract it rather than draining it, assuming it has a way of extracting it, such as my Prius which has no way. Extracting it gets a lot more out of the pan, so when you change the filter it has less chance of it dumping all over you.
You need more than that amount. The filter pulls fluid out so you have to account for that.
i got a matrix at 170k with horrible fluid and did drain and fill 3 or 4 times i forget but never changed filter. i was told its unneccesary
Interesting but makes sense
Mines at 167 looks like original fluid, did it shift better worse or the same after?
@@KollynJ It did about the same.
That fluid looks pretty darn red still
I think it's supposed to be red, just not rusty or sludgy looking.
It does look pretty good. But, as stated in the video, it sounds like it has been changed at 30k mile intervals. This is why. If it had been original fluid at 100k miles, it definitely would have come out black and slightly burnt smelling. Transmission fluid is relatively cheap. A drain and fill every 30k to 45k is well worth the time to help ensure the transmission lasts as long as possible.
