yah but their comes a time to never touch it if it hasn't been done. transmissioin fluid is so full of detergents that when you change it, all the friction particles in the old fluid go away, the new fluid washes whats left of the clutches and bam, it starts slipping. if it hasn't been maintained, don't touch it. some say only if it smells burned, but for how dirty that was, there has been some burning going on. no combustion means it should still resemble pink/red. unless burning has occured on the clutches.
That is a lesson for everyone. If the fluid is really bad one drain and fill may not be enough and it may take three or four. Great instruction video. Thank you.
I have a 2017 Impala 3.6....I bought it used with 32,000 miles....I did my first trans fluid change at 40,000 miles and the fluid was quite dark even then ....I changed it again at 60,000 and just changed it again at 89,000. The issue is that you can only get 5 quarts drained out but there is still a few quarts in the torque converter so when you add fresh fluid, it mixes with the old fluid still in the transmission and torque converter so by changing it a few times right away, the old fluid still in transmission gets mixed in with fresh fluid and drained out.
I really like it when you make maintenance videos like this one. It reminds me of a guy named Brad Sears. He had a TV show back in the 1980's on WGBH (PBS) called "Last Chance Garage". He'd do repairs and test drives. Great video Randy! 👍🇺🇸😎 You might want to try a can of Liqui-Moly Transmission Cleaner.
Last time I had a automatic transmission fluid change (Jeep Grand Cherokee ZJ) I was told at least 25/30 trans fluid retained in the torque converter; need a double flush !!!!!!!!!! Good Job, love the channel and also Monkey Mike (and Lola)
WOW!!! you just saved me 275.00 on a one-time flush. Did it myself, and that's the difference in paying for T/F at Wal-Mart and a shop doing the work. More money for my classic build. Lol 😉
its easier to pull off one of the cooler lines, and while it's running out of the cooler line (engine) running, filling it up from above at the same rate until both fluids look the same. kinda like a flush but your letting the transmission do the pumping. the benefit over splash and fill is you don't waste all those quarts of new fluid at $10 a quart cause it's mixing with the old fluid. now dex/merc is cheap, but mercon v or atf 4 is not. but i've done a splash and fill as well. i got 15 quarts out of my 7.3l powerstroke just draining the pan and troque converter. but thats not all of it.
This video was super helpful! I just bought a used 2016 Cadillax XTS with 28k miles and i did this in my driveway. The fluid was similar to your 2nd and 3rd drain, so i'm going to do it again at 33k miles when i change my oil again. $33 for 5 quarts of Valvoline Max Life ATF at Walmart is well worth it.
A complete drain and fill on a 6T70 is 5.28 quarts. If you let the car sit overnight before you drain the fluid out, you'll get all 5.28 quarts out. Add the slightly more than 5 1/4 quarts, drive it around, and you'll find the level on the dipstick is perfect. Also, if you own a vehicle with this transmission, there's no reason for you not to do a drain and fill at least once a year!! And to those who say there's a filter, THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NOT a replaceable filter on this transmission!!
This fluid change procedure is very similar to Ford's 6F50 and 6F55. I bet you can do this procedure in the SHO as well, it has a cap on top with dipstick to pour the fluid in with a long funnel
Hey Randy, it looks like you had fun. At least it looks like you had fun changing transmission fluid on your Chevy impala. I am glad that you have fun doing these videos that we enjoy every day I am. Love watching your videos. Any video that you have out I have to get my watch and I hope you have a great time doing this for us and for yourself. I hope you have a great day and I’ll talk to you soon. and I can’t wait to see your next video.
Hello Randy. Changing the transmission fluid in the 2016 Chevrolet Impala. Good luck with changing the transmission fluid and hopefully you won't have any other problems.
I hear you man. I did the fluid and pan change on my Ram a couple years ago. The temperature ranges for filling it cold, then getting it warm but not hot to get through all gears then quickly get under to fill it some more until it starts dropping fluid almost drove me nuts
My 2.5L 4cyl impala same body type and color has started doing the same thing shifting into third gear. Only 3rd and only the first two times it shifts into 3rd when the car has been sitting awhile and is cold. Changing the fluid this weekend. Hopefully it helps it out. Great Vid
Yeah, you can drain the transmission, but you have to consider that the transmission converter still has almost 6 qt in. It's quite sad, so it probably take a little bit to drain and clear.
@@AutoAuctionRebuilds no problem man! Did you ever get the remote start situated? I don’t know how long ago you recorded that video so if it was recorded like yesterday I’d assume no but if it has been a few days just curious if you got it working
A full swap is best, the dropping trans oil from the plug does do a complete change as the torque converter and cooler isn't changed/flushed. Its better to run the motor while swapping the oil.
I know these transmissions paired with the 3.6L V6 were known in that era for torque converter failures. That’s where the flaring starts. Happened to my aunts gmc Acadia and my Chevy traverse both 2015s with the same engine and transmissions. I asked the service advisor how often the transmission fluid should be changed and the recommendation is every 30k miles. And I can believe that. Others say every 50k-75k miles and others say never. This maybe debatable but I think every 20k-30k miles is reasonable to prevent transmission failures.
I did a pan drop/filter change & one spill and fill on my Mazda cx5 for first time at 138k miles.. shifts way better now.. not touching it again tho. as after a few hundred miles the fluid still looks perfect.
Considering how bad the fluid looked, probably better to take it to a transmission shop with a pressure flusher that can get all the old fluid out of the torque converter and cooler (if there is one).
And to think that GM had "lifetime" ATF in a lot of cars during the 00's. And also the manual's had "lifetime" gear oil. THAT was the biggest scam of all time. It only resulted in dead transmissions and less secondhand cars on the market. Every Opel I had (gm product) I replaced the oil and everytime the old stuff that came out was dark, dirty and smelly. After the new stuff was in they all drove waaaay better. So nice work on the impala :)
I have a 2018 Cadillac XTS with this same motor and getting transmission shutter and rpms flare up shifting from 2nd to 3rd. Think I’ll be doing this next weekend
The service franshire used auto fulid exchange machine that hook directly to transmittion drain plug and ran the engine until the fulid recycle, There is no longer drain the fulid and take the pan out and replace the filter called "strainer"then renew the transmittion pan gasget and filled with the new fulid any more.
Had this issue with my 2014 Impala ( same body style & Engine & trans ) it had 107k miles on it, it ended up needing a front transmission seal. It would hard shift from 2-3rd and flare shift from 1st to 2nd. I sold it before the trans went was a nice car otherwise LTZ with 2LZ package
Randy, I'm not sure if you live in an area which uses salt in the winter, but those flex sections on the exhaust those wire mesh flex sections the one that's in front of the cat, if you drive that in the winter and don't keep that underbody clean of salt as much as possible those will be the first to rot out. Just a tip I don't know if you're a salt state or not, But four different cars I had, had them flex sections in each one of them after a winter season or two start to rot away and the exhaust gets loud and then you either got a patch it which only last a little while or replace it which can be a pain especially if it happens every season lol Hopefully your area doesn't use salt but if it does try to keep that underbody as flushed or perhaps you some anti-rust stuff on the flex section I don't know if that's possible because of how hot it gets but just a heads up!
Hi Randy. Nice clean Car. It will probably need afew flushes to get it nice and fresh again. Wow that Trans oil is well and truly Burnt. Good video again Randy and Chat laters bro. Chat laters bro 😅😅
ULV type oil turns dark quickly. Not necessarily junk. I have seen that for yrs at work. I build prototype transmissions for a OE, is that Impala a 6T55 equipped?
Hmm, never gave this a thought. Serious question, my daily truck, 2003 chevy avalanche with a 4L60 (dont laugh, it shifts perfectly and i do not treat it like a race truck) has a drain plug in the pan. For years, ive always dropped the pans on em and changed the screens in em. The fluid is only just starting to change colors, so i wonder if i could get away with simply draining and refilling the fluid? Truck was very well maintained before I got it 5 years ago. Im not a newbie at this, im simply genuinely curious. Thank you in advance
I’m having the same issue with my ‘12 Impala with 165K and I want to change the fluid, but I’m very concerned if I do the transmission might start slipping. Any thoughts on what I should do? UPDATE… I changed the fluid and it’s shifting much better.
Randy when you got under it and pushed that center thing out of the way I thought the car was rolling off the lift and my heart dropped for a split second
The only problem with changing the trans fluid with the trans having issues is the new fluid can be catastrophic to your trans , it won't like new fluid at all , leave the fluid you have in your trans and pray your trans lasts for as long as possible ..peace
I had the same problem and my friends that have the same car also have the same thing ,trans fluid will not solve the problem at lest for long time after one week or two the problem will come back the only solution is to replace the transmission 😢
No doubt that car never had a transmission fluid change before. That is why I do not like used vehicles with a bunch of miles on them, a lot of people do not maintain them. It even has a drain plug! There's no excuse not to do it. A simple drain and fill of what is in the pan every 20ish thousand miles would be all it ever needed, and it would not cost much at all to diy it. That is what I do on my Frontier which is considered the severe service schedule in the book, but I call it cheap added insurance!
Thank you for this video, I have never heard of a transmission flare. Randy - I am the person that wrote that you have champagne taste with a beer budget. I assure you that my comment was not intended as an insult or slight. I intended my comment as humor which clearly failed miserably. For that I apologize. My mother used to say that phrase when speaking about her taste in homes and where to live. My father worked for the phone company, so clearly we had a beer budget. When I lived in San Antonio TX I worked for Mannheim and ADESSA one summer. It was brutal, most of the cars were useless. You often talk of ‘smell-a-vision’, when I see some of these cars, the fragrance comes flooding back. The repo’s, the cars with check engine lights, as well as the vehicles that were involved in an accident that was so horrific that they were not discernible. Additionally, I attended Indiana State University in Terre Haute as a grad student and watched the videos of your Uncles home with great interest. I greatly appreciate the effort and hard work you do to generate content. I wish you nothing but tremendous success.
The third drained looked okay to me. You might want to put about three or 400 miles on it and then do it. That way you'll make sure it's all the way flushed. in my opinion.
Nice work Randy, showing people that if there dont mind getting their hands dirty they can save themselves alot of money 👍, talking of dirty hands is it true that you use stunt double hands and that they belong to M.W. Mike 😅, just joking young man. I must say i like this type of post when you explain why youre doing something and that people can do the work themselves, well done. Gary 🇬🇧🇬🇧
I bet you that car NEVER has had the transmission fluid changed at all until Randy did the right thing!
yah but their comes a time to never touch it if it hasn't been done. transmissioin fluid is so full of detergents that when you change it, all the friction particles in the old fluid go away, the new fluid washes whats left of the clutches and bam, it starts slipping. if it hasn't been maintained, don't touch it. some say only if it smells burned, but for how dirty that was, there has been some burning going on. no combustion means it should still resemble pink/red. unless burning has occured on the clutches.
@@justinpaone2227 I totally agree with you 👍. I am getting my first automatic transmission done at 60,000 miles.
@@justinpaone2227 If your transmission works better with old fluid then it's close to failing anyway.

Two I agree with Randy on what yes Walmart has best prices for automotive fluid's & transmission work on 3016 Impala was ad easy as changing battery.

Smart money saving call. Transmission should be good. Took a lot of quarts but cheaper than a transmission. Thanks
Love the uploads keep it up Randy love you

I have a 2014 champagne silver metallic impala ltz, it’s nice finely seeing videos about the same car🇺🇸🦅
Damn! You’re grinding. Making videos for us in the dark. Not all heroes wear capes. 🦸♂️
I have one of these cars too, so this is good info to watch. I never checked the trans fluid in my car but I will next time I go out there to it.

They are practically the same transmission, GM/Ford joined together in creating this transmission.

And why is it fine if i just do the fluid drain once ?
Waiting for you to do the plugs so I can see how hard it is to take intake off
Hello Randy, you're doing great job.

Interesting design choice to forego a filter on that transmission. Where is the strainer, and how do you check it for debris and clean it?

What about changing the transmission filter? Isn’t that necessary? I’ve never changed fluid without changing the filter
Randy, is the flare/slip bump in 3rd or 5th gear? Can your scan tool look at transmission (6T70) adapts for each gear?
Do a vibrant resonator install and a Magnaflow axleback on that impala
NO, leave it stock. I would take those chrome window thingy's off

You should have popped the return cooler line off and flushed the dirty fluid out and kept refilling with new till it came out clean

The fluid fits almost everything but it also never fits the best for every car. I would never use it for any cars for this reason
