Buss plate

bruce633 · 12-30-2005, 06:18 PM

Hi: I have a 98 sl2 with auto trans. I just got back from a free vehicle inspection at my local Saturn dealer. Besides a few minor problems I can handle myself, the service tech said the top transmission cover was leaking and was also leaking out of the electrical connection. He said the cover has to be removed and something about a buss plate and shim has to be removed and fluid drained and them reassembled. I not sure if any parts need replacing but the price he gave was 544.12. Is this a job I can do myself and if so is there any instruction here that will tell me how to do this. I tried looking in the other posts but can't find anything about this.I have worked on cars many times before but have never worked on a auto trans before. Thanks for any help.

You will probably get better answers by having the mod move this thread to the S series forum, an SL & an L are two different cars
