My buddy wants me to help him change the fluid in the automatic transmission in his 2000 Sonoma. In case it matters, it is 2wd 4-cylinder.

I found a brief description on another site about what is recommended, but wanted to post this specific truack here.

Is this swap as simple as dropping the pan, draining the fluid, changing the filter, replacing the pan, and filling it back up?

Anyone have the part numbers for the filter & pan gasket (if required)?

How many quarts to refill? What typ of fluid?

Thanks in advance.

- Oil dipstick

  Did the dipstick itself break or did the tube it slides into? The stick is easy, just measure the 2 broken pieces, the tube is trickier, install the new 1, change the oil adding the factory spec oil quantity and see where it shows on the stick. You may have to trim the tube with a tubing cutter to get the stick accurate.

  Does anyone have the wire connect diagram? I'm getting a 10 channels VPM but I don't know where to connect each camera.

  New tires are on, Cooper Discoverer Road+Trail AT's in 235/75/15. $100 per tire, after $10 AAA discount. Plus install ($100), disposal fees, and taxes. The new tires ride nice. Catch 22, new tires, I love it again! But I feel like I've been through the wringer with this rig, and maybe I don't need this kind of headache right now. Wait until tomorrow, I'll probably love it again and keep it another week. Never a dull moment: Got a CEL driving to the tire shop, P0172 bank 1 too rich. Oh lordy, really? I've been enjoying an emoji-free dash for too long, apparently. I popped the hood at the shop and I think there was a vacuum leak very close to the intake. Cleared the code and put a bunch of miles on it going home, code never returned. My fix was zip-tying the line on the vacuum reserve ball because the hose won't stay seated. It's either that or the fuel pressure regulator has an issue again or an injector is leaking. See why I'm getting tired of this one?! In the gas price thread I recorded 19mpg on the last tank in fairly mixed driving and some higher-speed highway (70). I also don't have the lower engine shield installed right now, and that would help with diverting a lot of wind underneath the truck. Not too long ago, a green '96 4-door 4x4 came up for sale with less than 1,000 actual miles. There was a story there but it was real, and the place wanted like $25k for it. Would be fun to have a NICE example of one of these, but not too nice. The joy is driving them. That's it for a while...family and social stuff all weekend, no time to play with my Hot Wheels in the garage for the next couple of days.
