When you added fluid after driving, did you add it through the fill plug again? You didn't show and installed the heat shield is why I'm curious. I'm about to do mine. I will wait to install the heat shield of I'm going to possibly have to add fluid unless there's another way.

Why dont you recommend a flush?

Louis

My yukon denali 2015 did not get any oil change and now its past 200k kilometers, some mechanics suggest not to change since it might break the transmission, please advice

Jules

Very informative. I changed the trans fluid on my 82 f150, and I’m thinking about doing it for my 2015 Tahoe. This vid helped get over some of that fear of messing up lol

Geri

Thank you!!!

Staunton

I can smell this video, Lol.

Burhan

Hi, just a quick question, I have a 2016 Yukon Denali, do you have a fix or an idea for shaking or engine vibration? Dealer don’t want to accept there is an issue with the car

Maccallum

Hey Danny I got a bit confused in the video, did you put the same ATF that you took out back in? Or did you use new ATF for all 7-8 quarts

Lawrence

I recommend a flush but do it your self don’t take it to the dealer. I did mine on my 2015 Cadillac Escalade, new filter welded a bolt for easy maintenance for next time, delete the thermo switch and then flush the transmission from the return line on the radiator came out better then the dealership.

Great vid! 5 minute job, and this solved the mystery of my intermittent cruise control failure on my 1993 C2500 Suburban. For others, if your cruise cuts out or won't come on at all, ... by lifting up on the brake pedal (using your foot) while setting the cruise. If it stays on and then cuts out once you remove your foot, this switch is the culprit!

Ishani

My truck has 4 wheel drive, will I still be able to do this? The diff Is underneath. Thanks!

Cumming

Joslyn

I have 6 ton Pittsburg stands from harbor freight should I be worried

Thank you so much for this. I couldn't figure out how to get that connector off before watching this, and other videos glossed over this part despite it being the most frustrating (for me anyways).

Sabina

Good stuff. Changed mine on my 2015 Yukon today. I appreciate the info.
