Dipsticks are not the same. Specific to each model.

 

I got the trans to pull for a second after adding two more quarts of fluid.Gonna get me an ody dipstick and go from there.

 

Tirede of messing around.Going to get my av6 tomorrow.If i have a fairly new tl torque converter that i know is good can it be used with the av6 or are they different?Asaking just in case my av6 doesnt come with one.

 

Make sure the av6 you buy comes with the tc

 

It did come with tc.Just as a double check before i put it in tomorrow,i change atf warmer,range switch and 3rd gear pressure switch?If so,where exactly is the third gear pressure switch?

 

Just read a thread where it said all i had to change was the 3rd and 4th pressure switch harness.Is that right and not the actual switch itself?

 

I just got my av6 swap done and the car runs beautifully.Thank you guys so much for all your help.

 

:gheywave:

 

Nice job! Now start enjoying that TL.

 

Loving it now.Installed my stereo system and cleaned it up and loving it.

 

Couldnt of done it without you guys.

 

^ Keep up the maintenance on that trans. Do atf 1x3 every 2 or 3 motor oil changes and external trans filter change around 35K miles if it has one.

 

Will do.I used the tl spin on filter setup so Ill change it as stated.

 

Ok guys ive got a stumper for you.Car was doing great until yesterday.Was driving in a rain storm and it acted like when you pushed the throttle that it didnt want to go then itd surge and go for a second then not want to go again.Only light on at the time it started was the cel due to the knock off cold air intake.The tcs light then popped on and the car drove just fine again and thats the way its been everytime since.Start the car and the tcs lights off and the cars acting up,drive it a couple minutes at most and the light kicks on and it drives fine.I tried shutting tcs off and it still acted up until the light popped on.I have not had a chance to change the spin on filter or do my 3x3 due to the lack of money.Only been driving the car in have to situations until i can afford the fluid and filter.Cant get any codes to read about tcs cause it goes off when you shut the car off.The cel code is now showing the o2 sensor that i just changed is acting up again.Any ideas on what to check or change?Is it cause of the filter and fluid?

 

I would fix your O2 sensor problem before continuing to diagnose. A faulty O2 sensor can cause many problems with the ECU. Make sure that you are careful with the sensor when you install it because they're fragile.

If your car can't read the MAP sensor either then the ECU has a lot of question marks about the running condition of the engine. It probably can't even go into closed loop mode with these sensors not working properly which will drastically affect performance.

 

Ok,ill change it again.its only got 210 miles on it but who knows.

 

Use oem denso only. Maybe change both... primary/secondary. Recommended service interval is 100k mi.
