    Does anyone else get the distinct impression that Ol' Petey is making subliminal references to sumpin other than a hydraulic fluid level guage??? I gotta tell ya - the mental images are quite disturbing. I don't think that we need PK's dipstick becoming a topic of daily discussion.

    Exclamation

    According to wikipedia GM discontinued the 4L30-E back in 2002.

    There after they developed the 5L40-E which features a 5 speed gearbox instead of the 4 that our trans came with.

    Does anyone knows if the 5L40-E is compatible with our VX ?
    Dakar was just the begining.
