Transmission Service & Valve Body Wiring Harness Replacement

Success! I did the wiring harness and it made a world of difference. Had to cut flat head rivets it the old bolts to get them off. That took about 2 hours. Then clean the pan, scrape off the liquid gasket the aholes that were suppose to do the job failed to do. That is a whole other story. New magnets the old ones had about an inch of shavings all around them. The chocolate milk looking oil around the magnets was like running your finger through wet sand. Again, the pos's at this "European Specialist" garage fail to at least clean the magnets. They said they put new oem oil. BS, they used the same oil. Only topped it off with ZF fluid when they had to tow it back because it was leaking 24hrs after I got it back. No leaks when I was done and I just used an oem gasket after a thorough cleaning of the pan. Replaced all The bolts and oem fluid. Drives like a dream. All the problems I've been having have vanished!
