:bow:SICKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK

is it me or is ur tranny pretty clean? :dunno:

btw first

 

Woah, very cool!

 

omg so sick

 

Fvck the 56kb/s unfriendly, this thread is T3 unfriendly :lmao:

Very nice though, the inner workings of the valve body looks so interesting :drool:

 

looks like your million dollar tripod came in handy :eeps:

i would put make some of those gears into art for my house

 

awesome....now clean the parts and make a coffee table out of them or a stool.

 

:bow::clap:

 

very nice work neil :hi:

 

wow nice....now put everything back together lol

 

there is a special tool to remove those springs. It's still a pain in the ass even with it.

why do you think there is a filter and the magnet in the pan. What did the bands and servo's look like?

the clutches and pressure plates look to be fine

 

^ why, delete.



bands and servos? wut

:bow:
Very nice. Maybe I missed this, but why waste the tranny though?

Nothing is a waste. But the tranny was fubar for reasons unknown. I knew the reverse solenoid was bad but I'll take it apart again and look at everything more closely later. Maybe then I'll figure it out.

wow beautiful. In the pictures I noticed you spun the parts. Was it really that easy to spin?

yep, they would have spun for hours if we didnt stop them. They were literally frictionless, well almost.

 

didnt know it was mande by GM, but not surprised.

 

Ready for the bombshell? The GM one is the good one. The E46 autos are made by two different companies, ZF and GM. The early ZF ones are the ones with problems.

 

awesome! nice to know the ATF works after that many miles...

 

cool, nice detail

 

:bow:

sick sick sick

Awesome. That was very refreshing.
Reminds me of a Hadron Collider.

 

Speechless...

 

i think im going to show this to my physics professor haha. he and i just had a conversation of how auto transmissions work.

 

Well done, I KNEW there was a reason I have MANUAL transmissions!

Always fun taking stuff apart when you really do not have to get it back together correctly. Takes all the pressure off and leads to fun.

 

Now that you've seen it inside...What looks like the possible area(s), parts of the tranny that can be harmed by changing fluid? (the theory that gunk dislodges and cloggs something else). Or is it the complexity of the whole thing that makes you decide against the fluid change?

Good job!

 

nice shots with the camera always fun to take something apart!

 

my response.

if we can build millions of those i don't see how solving our energy problems could be an issue! throw enough engineers at something and you get some amazing things!

 

crappy camera

 

Area 51 ish.
