  • This wasn't as easy as it was supposed to be. I am happy how it went in the end so hopefully this video can help some of you guys do your own and save the dealer cost.

    Nice fleet of vehicles you have there! Good how to video for the HTC owners out there.

    You gotta keep the old Vette that's old school, sure miss the sound of carbureted engines I grew up with them as a kid.

    Mike, you need a shop manual for the C8! Congratulations on not swearing figuring it all out..😂. Imagine all that plastic on how brittle it will be when it’s as old as Prince!!

      Funny you say that I was thinking the same thing doing the job.

    That sure looks like a LOT of work just to add some transmission fluid. GEEZ!

    I installed a quarter turn quick drain adapter into the side fill port. Added the two additional quarts with a pressure pot.

    You are a trooper - I think I would jack up the driver's side, pull off the left rear, and go through the check tranny level port. The GM engineers definitely made that fill plug hard to get to on purpose. Guaranteed hours for the dealership mechanics! How much extra would it have cost to run a fill tube off to the side of the airbox accessible from the trunk or engine bay? I'm sure there will be an industrious company making a tranny fill relocation kit in the future.

      I think if I had another floor jack I would have tried that way. But would hate for a jack to slip out and rip off a side skirt in the process.

    Why in the hell didn’t gym just add the two quarts to begin with?

    Does your Gasoline have Ethanol in it or is that a USA thing?

    Would this job have been easier if it was a coupe instead of a HTC?

      @mikesgarage6331  Před 3 měsíci

      Yes! Having to go between the trunk and top hatch was a bugger

    Way too much work, way too complicated and way too many busted and scratched knuckles. And of course way too long. Filling it from the side took me going slowly about 1 1/2hr. That pain was jacking and removing the tire. That’s it.
