I have now changed my transmission filter twice in less than the amount of time that GM says you should do it once... This is needed far more often than GM claims. Have you changed yours yet? 🤔
Question got my 24 stingray for Christmas she mainly sits in the garage till I get home no more than 100 something miles on her I KNOW I KNOW DON'T SAY IT .. but should I go get my free oil change and transmission done with all the sitting??
Time AND mileage affect these things so if it’s been over a year you need your oil changed anyway.
Not yet soon
@HorsePowerObsessed do you think GM overestimated the mileage intervals of the transmission filter? I have been looking around to find out issues showing up with the c8 around 20k - 35k mileage after hearing from you and Brink of Speed about transmission issues, and then getting an unpleasant experience of my own.
Thanks brother, I truly appreciate how you respond to your comments. It shows your passion.
You're very welcome. I try to stay active so we can all help each other out!
My wife doesn't understand that watching something like this can bring great pleasure and a good mood
My wife wouldn't either but I watch videos like this on cars I don't/won't ever own just because I love watching automotive stuff get "perfected" 😍
You thank you're lucky stars you got both... I'll be lucky to get the vet cuz I'm always alone and I can't get no girl love me.... And that's if I'm lucky enough to get to that and the only reason I'll be able to do that is because my whole family pretty much died and I'm about to get it inheritance the song by the vet and I hope I crash it I hope I die in it too... So enjoy your wife and your vet.
True Car Guy changing his own oil! 👏👏👏
100% agree! If you really care about your car you will take the time to do it yourself, otherwise, you never know what you're getting.
@@HorsePowerObsessed That is because GM dealer techs are below the line.
Certainly seems that way!
@@HorsePowerObsessedI can vouch for that after they overfilled my oil.
That's a dang shame!
Just picked up my Z06 yesterday...This is such a great video. Thank you so much for the tutorial and the links!
Congrats!!! You’re very welcome. It’s easy to change and something you should do often!
Traded my MY23 C8 Z51 for a MY24 C8 Z06/Z07 two weeks ago and this video is great!
I'm not convinced about the DCT filter flush, especially like you showed with your filter, if it's already dirty and you do the flush procedure, I wonder if it doesn't go into bypass mode and just dump all that sludge into your valve bodies. And the need for the initial DCT filter change may be far earlier than just 7.5k miles. Great video, thank you.!
@AirRyanTX thank you!!
Great video! I saved this video to my Corvette playlist so I can watch again right before I change my oil. Thanks for making this informative video 💪
You’re quite welcome!! Thank you!!
Great DIY video that I will come back to when I change these on my car. I need to order the E8, E16, and 32mm sockets.
Wow, thanks so much for taking the time on this as well as your other videos, Justin. Current C8 Stingray owner here getting ready to trade for a 2023 70th Anniversary Z06 tomorrow. It has just 7 miles on it, but I'm going to go ahead and do everything you've done in this video. This will make the process much, much easier for me. Again, thanks very much and all the best in your future. Love the content! (Subscribed and smashed that bell :) )
Glad to help! Thank you for the support! Let me know if you have any other questions and CONGRATS on the car!!
Car guy doing his own work!! 💗
Heck yeah!!
Mr. Justin thanks for the maintance video. Nice video.
You bet! I appreciate the support!
Definitely doing this kind of maintenance on your own is saving hundreds of dollars in labor and it's better then dropping off the car for a day or waiting for hours at the dealership.
Dealership wanted almost $800 to do both the oil and the transmission filter even IF I provided the filters/oil.
@@HorsePowerObsessed that's insane
@robertjakicic5878 I agree! I figured 200 or 300 at most for labor but nope. Way over that!
HPO, Show'in your love for the black beauty.
You know it!!
Well done and step by step focused. Good job guys!
Thank you!!
HPO is also (MPO) Maintenance Power Obsessed, and I completely agree!
I changed my engine oil/filter, and trans oil/filter; at 1k. Then I changed the engine oil/filter, and trans filter; at 2.5k.
All new oils and filters at 7k.
Paul 👍
I take care of all my cars in the same way. If you take care of them, they will take care of you!
Justin Thanks for the maintenance vlog!! Seems pretty practical!! Thanks again Justin!!👍🏽
You're very welcome! Thank you!!
Justin- that’s interesting as hell. Thank you for sharing.
You're quite welcome! Thank YOU!!
Glad to see that you're putting miles on your ZO6 Justin! 👍👍 Love that old Bronco at Blackout Tinting! Boy, changing the oil/filter ain't exactly a Jiffy Lube job. 🤣🤣 This maintenance item is enough to test the patience of a Saint. Well done Justin! I have to laugh though that this marvel of modern technology uses a cartridge filter. 🤣Do you know the last time the Vettes used a cartridge filter? It was with the C2's. So, it's true that history does repeat itself, sooner or later. Your vid was VERY informative Justin. Again, Well Done! 👍👍 Save the Wave 🙋♂
I appreciate that, Peter!! History does in fact repeat itself!
Great piece of mind changing your Oil and DCT Filter early. Have a great track day coming up and those nice smooth shifts :)
- Justin
I appreciate it!!
This is your second filter change. Have you not added any trans fluid? Some seem to and some don’t…
Hi Justin, enjoyed the video and thanks for sharing. Enjoy your Sunday.
Thanks, John! You do the same my friend!
This is a really useful video! Thanks for sharing it!
You're very welcome! Thank you!
Great minds Justin did both of mine at 1900 and about to do them both again at 5300. I was advised that if tracking doing both is a good thing. Safe travels 😊
100%! It's incredible how much different the car shifts after doing the filter with only about 3,500 miles on it! I should have done it sooner! I said in the very beginning I was going to swap out this filter every oil change and it needs it that often if not more in my opinion!
Any plans to produce a video about how to drain/flush and refill the DCT? Thanks
I can’t personally flush the system. I could drain and refill but flushing you need a special setup for. I will be showing how to add fluid next.
Where is the fill for the transmission? I know not much fluid was lost but this being the 2nd time you now changed the filter, it would be a good idea to get it back to full capacity.
I'll show it in the future. GM shows this filter being changed multiple times before a fluid change is needed at which point it would bring the fluid level back up to stock.
Great video, Justin! I have 2400 miles on my 2023 C8 Stingray and still can do the free oil change and transmission filter change before it expires. Sounds like you definitely recommend doing that even early instead of waiting until the mandatory 7500 mile transmission filter change. Didn’t know if changing the trans filter earlier than 7500 miles would hurt anything. I’ll still do it again at 7500 miles per GM requirements but you’re probably right that “over maintaining” isn’t a bad thing especially if you want it to last. Any other words of wisdom or advise? Thanks again for a great channel! 😁👍
Thank you! Keep in mind you can NEVER over maintain a car so the more you change that filter the better! I did it at 2k, 6k and will do it again at 7,500 and probably 10k. I'll do it every time I change the oil.
Thanks once again for all your great information
My pleasure! Thank YOU for the support!
Very solid video 🤘. Love content like this.
I appreciate it, man! I’m always down to help others with this stuff!
Good content and info Justin. On the DCT flush mode topic. At the Bash i talked with Josh Holder about this becaise i like to do as much of my own wrenching as i can. He told me it was done that way at the dealer because they have the the tool hooked up to the car aready and they can. But is not a needed step in the filter change. Confirmed by Father Chuck on Rick Conti's channel also.
Good to know! I can tell you I didn't do the flush on mine and just changing the filter made a huge difference so I'd say it isn't needed!
Excellent Tutorial 👍
Glad you liked it!
Excellent preventive maintenance 👍🏼
Yes indeed!
Thank you for another informative video. I recently purchased a2023 ZO6 and it bugs me out someone else drove it before me so I need to do a full service on it to feel ok 😬
I know the feeling! I'd do the same.
Transmission just went out on my 2023 Stingray. Wish I had changed the filter when I did the oil change. Don't make this mistake. Change your filter!
Exactly why I do it so often. You can't OVER maintain these things! Sorry to hear about yours, though...
Great vid! I totally agree w you about the intervals and changing the trans filter early. I am still waiting on my oil analysis from my first oil change (taking forever). I do feel even after 4K miles trans performance is different than stock and I think this will rectify it. I personally think driving the car is the same as the flush procedure.
Once you change the filter you'll KNOW the performance was different. This filter should probably be changed almost once every 2k miles. It's incredible!
Great DIY video!
Thanks, Pat!!
Great content bro! 🙌🏽
Thanks, man!! I appreciate it!
as always thanks for your instructions. I am about to do this to my own Z, however didn't you have to add more fluid back into the trans?
You're quite welcome! You don't lose enough fluid to worry about says GM. Eventually, you swap out all of the fluid and at that point you'd obviously top it off anyway. I have an extra quart I bought just in case so I might show how to add it next time.
Cool video thanks!
Thank YOU!
Paragon is a good place, Since you got your oil from them, I'm assuming you will be getting your brake pads and fluid from them as well, you'll be glad you did.
I won’t need pads but I get a lot of my stuff from them!
You know I wonder if you resetting the transmission filter maintenance setting makes it shift better as a way to get you to service the vehicle more frequently. Not saying the filter doesn't allow it to shift better for whatever reason but to me that makes more sense coming from these car companies in the year 2024.
That would be quite the scheme so I'm going to say no, but maybe I'll test it out next time and reset it first.
Greta DYI video 👍👍👍
Thank you!!
The was cool 😎 info for if I ever get one
Thank you!
I have 1900 on my C8 Z06 and I got a P0700 code yesterday and my car wouldn’t shift out of 1st gear. That code is related to the “transmission”. Going to be changing my Filter ASAP
In the meantime I cleared the code just like a corvette tech instructed me to do and drove it hard. Everything seems to be fine for now. He said 9 times out of 10 you just need to clear the code and drive it hard and it fixes the issue,
still very concerning.
100%! I've seen that a bunch with this car. If you don't drive it hard, it can misfire (carbon buildup on plugs) and all kinds of weird stuff. I give my car a good hard rip every single time I have it out.
I like that X Brace 😉
I knew you would!! 😎
do you lose and trans fluid while changing the filter????? is it still safe to just change filter while not changing the fluid????
Are you inspecting the oil filter between the pleats to see if there’s any metal flakes or debris? You can also run a magnet along the pleats just to make sure there’s nothing.
I looked at the filter and didn't notice anything shiny.
@@HorsePowerObsessed that’s good news 😊
Hello I want to change the filter on the corvette but does the motore have to be cold?? Or shlead it be hot?
Mine was warm, I don't think it matters to be honest.
Hey Justin, Do you need to refill the transmission oil which was lost during the procedure? and how do you do it?
No. GM says you don’t lose enough for it to be an issue. At 45,000 miles the fluid gets flushed and filled anyway so by then it will be added anyway. I have another quart that I bought just in case so maybe one of these days I’ll show how to add some.
@@HorsePowerObsessedThank you so much!! you are the best!
I appreciate that!!
I don’t think that you can over-maintain that car! Good insurance!!
That’s exactly how I feel about it!
@@HorsePowerObsessed oh and thanks for the shout out! I need to liberate that Bronco for a few days!!
@Glasscitycarnerd no problem man!!
Do you have to top off the trans fluid?
GM says it doesn't lose enough to be an issue. I will eventually top it off, though.
I'm in Canada, was just quoted 1200 dollars to change dct filter..?! Does that sound right?
Not at all! The filter itself is around $200 from GM but that’s all, the rest is labor and that’s high!
1200 usd???? Most places in the states will ask between 700 and 1200 usd.
It appears to me that the DCT filter cover plate was installed rotated 180 degrees from it's orientation prior to removal. I'm guessing you guys are aware of this and that it doesn't matter? Thanks
It is perfectly "square" so the holes lineup the same regardless.
What track are you going to?
Pitt race.
it's a cartridge oil filter and they're called keyhole slots
I definitely had a brain fart with the cartridge filter. I could not think of this at the time for some reason lol
..and what oil did u use?
It's all in the video, it's the GM called for 5w-50 supercar oil.
Whybdo u need a better oil change tank ? That works fine .
It absolutely works fine! It will be kind of a pain to empty though. The better ones can be emptied with an air compressor for cleaner and easier oil recycling, and things of that nature.
So funny so many diff size bolts! Wtf GM? Somebody tried to justify job by over engineering. Haaa. Great vid btw. Learnin’ me..
lol there are a lot for sure!! I really don’t get the idea behind a special kind of bolt on the aluminum pan at the bottom that’s the one part that really got me…
@@HorsePowerObsessed they are trying to cancel the weekend mechanics but I’m sorry they want you to go to the dealer all the time
I got.a set of sockets for those bolts. Harbor Freight, 15 bucks. Still wrench as much as I can!
100% agree! That's the way to do it! I'll always work on my own cars to my best ability!
Great video as usual!!!
How much do you charge for oil change for 2024 Z06 Justin?😂
😂😂😂 I can assist you for sure!!
What in the transmission is wearing down and causing so much debris in the fluid that causes these transmission to need a fluid change so much and causing so many failures? most other cars don't get a fluid change in the transmission for 50,000 miles or sometimes ever and they run fine. GM needs to go back to a manual.
GM tells you what to do to make them more money.
Very true.
Amsoil signature series and filter far surpasses mobile 1 or gm a/c delco . Also amsoil for better tranmission fluid and gear oil ...
Why Exxon Mobil doesn't offer 5 liter oil cans? Less plastic waste in the trash, so bad.👎
They do for some of their oil but not this supercar 5w-50.
I don’t care what you wrap a Tesla in….it will never be cool
