3:25 The automatic transmission in the 2011 Buick Regal Turbo is the Aisin AF40 6-speed. The non-turbo models have the Hydramatic 6T45 6-speed. A 6-speed manual transmission was available optionally on the turbo models only.
Thank you for this video! I have a 2013 Regal GS. This is the first car I have owned that doesn't have a trans dip stick. Like others have said, there is not a lot of information out there for Buicks with the Aisin Warner trans...and a good portion of what is out there is not accurate. People mean well and want to share information to help others but when they have been misinformed they are unknowingly giving bad advice.
Use JWS3324 or WS spec fluid. The best fluids to use are Aisin Type WS, Volvo pn31256775, and Toyota ATF WS. Stay away from the univerasal fluids. WS is a low viscosity fluid specifically made to work with this trans. It's best to use a scan tool to get the temp between 70-80c or 158-176F. The fluid should just start trickling out the center drain at that temp. There are alot of Volvo vids showing the process for the Aisin TF80SC AF40
Awesome video! What fluid part number did you use to refills the transmission? Aw-1 or the 10-4062? Please let me know … dealer sells a quart for $40 insane…
Wow it's hard to get any service info on the 2011 Buick regal at all! My wife inherited one from her mom who passed away in 2020, I'm the DIY mechanic who would like to keep it running for her. I've seen this procedure and drain tube for another vehicle, but on that one there is even more to the procedure, like checking the level at a very specific temperature (certainly operating temperature), or else! Is that verbiage included for this vehicle, at least in factory manual references?
What tool to get off drain plug I have same transmission and to get to fill on top looks like that part connected to the battery needs removed to access fill plug
