    HELP with Transmission Temperature PID 2009 Calais V 3.6 5 speed

    Frustrating. The more I look into it's looking line they don't use the OBD mode 22 PIDs for that and that they use their own propriety code to send that information. I think to do it involves scanning the canbus and finding the information that way. I figured out how to connect to the OBD port...

    VY V6 Elec Issues...

    VE Calais 5L40E Trans Deep or Shallow Pan? Help required

    I'm not 100% sure, Supercheap lists a RYCO deep and shallow kit for the 5L40E when I enter my vehicle details!? It doesn't mention fluid capacity in the service manual, just that it's Dex VI. I can go into Bursons, I just thought someone here might know from looking. Maybe there is only one...
