atx fluid change

Post by w0158981 » Thu Jul 17, 2008 10:27 am

so i have an 00 with the 3 speed atx transmission and when i checked the fluid the other day it was pretty gross. So i decided i should probably change it. Im just wondering what i need besides filter, fluid and i believe a gasket aswell.

also i've read mixed opinions on doing it, some people say it causes slips and others say its like a new tranny.

With the Mopar part numbers on the left, you will need:

4269671.............Gasket
4269649.............Filter
VU02152.............Mopar ATF+4 (4 quarts)
VU01227.............RTV sealer for the pan

As per DC this is a maintenance item for every 2 years or 30,000 miles.

Your fluid may have gone brown which isn't necessarily bad. When was the last time it was changed?
