This Guide Will Help in Changing the Fluid and Filter on Vehicles VN - VS with TH700 Automatic Trans
1. Purchase Gearbox Service Kit From Holden - Amcap - Repco - Coventrys etc
Gearbox Service kit is GM Part Number 8657926
This Should Contain
1x Automatic Transmission Filter
2x Transmission Oil Pan Gaskets
2. You should have a Good Working Area I chose to park the car in the driveway but anything open and safe is ok Jack the Car up and place stands in appropriate locations
3. Slide under the car and take a look underneith the Automatic Transmission Where u will be greeted by a series of 13mm Bolts undo them and have them sit to the side its also a good idea to have a drain tray to collect any fluid that may come out and let the vehicle cool if it had been recently driven ( i found out the hard way)
4. Pull Trans Sump off if it has fallen off already and place to the side
5. Pull Trans Filter Downwards and out then into the closest preferable Bin
6. Push new Transfilter into Filter Bore (where u just pulled the old one out from)
7. Clean the Pan and the surface where it connects to (Remove the old gasket)
8. There are two Gaskets in the Kit and one is made from Paper and the other Cork the Paper one is used for trans pans that have a continous raised line on the mounting surface and the cork one is used on the trans pan that has a non continuous raised line around the mounting surface (Mine was a Series 1 VN which uses the Paper one )
9. place new gasket onto pan and bolt the 13 mm bolts back in and tighten to 11nm if u have a torque wrench if not u decide when u think its tight enough.
10. Lower Car back down onto Ground and fill Transmission Filler through the dipstick hole with 4.8 Lts Approximately.
11. Completed Fluid and Filter Change have fun
