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

[CrustyDragonSlayer]

Hi;

Can anyone confirm for me whether the picture of my transmission (5L40E) is a deep or shallow pan?

The car is VE Calais V MY9.5

Cheers Dan

Surely they didn't do another 4L60E and have different pans on the 5 speed as well?
Does your owners manual state how much trans fluid is required for a service?

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 type of pan?

And no dipstick either right?
All u could do is measure the depth with a tape or ruler and try to find the dimensions of both pans online and compare if they exist?

That's it - no dipstick!

just for reference mine is filter kit rtk129

So either the listings on Ryco are incorrect, which I suspect as the genuine filter looks like the RTK 129.
