    Purge Valve. $70-$80 part, don’t buy from dealership and don’t buy a knockoff brand.

    Wireless Carplay

    Do these vehicles support wireless CarPlay without having to buy an adapter?

    10r60 fluid level

    Finally got that little bastard (plug) off. Best way was by using the 2 wrench method. Piece of cake :cool:

    10r60 fluid level

    Yeah I gotta figure something out with the initial plug torqued to 1000 lbs hahaha. I can’t get that damn thing off. I got no room for leverage.

    What ramps do you use? I’ve always thought about getting a set of 4 ramps but been iffy about it. How much extra clearance you get? Gotta be better than nothing.

    How did some of you break loose the transmission cap? Did any of you have to take heatshields off or something? I can get a wrench on it but not enough leverage. This is my first time trying to get the cap off. Thank goodness for Kevlar gloves lol

    Do you put anything on the gasket when installing a new on to the pan? (Aftermarket or OEM) I plan on getting a PPE pan so I’m just going to put a new gasket on.

    Any good write ups on replacing spark plugs?

    Yeah 1 hour my a**! lol they must of done it more than once. You will only get better but my first time doing it took 6 hours. That’s including breaks and dealing with kids.

    Any good write ups on replacing spark plugs?

    Good luck! I just did this today. This was the worst thing I’ve done to the vehicle so far lol passenger rear was the hardest for me. No dang room. I have 59k on the car. Kyle’s video was good too. The 1st spark plug on passenger side is the only one that had the wires with a zip tie on coil...

    2025 Trans Slamming into 3rd (sometimes)

    I would get it to operation temp and check trans fluid yourself. Can’t take the dealerships word for it. They probably didn’t even look at it.
