Instellen en installeren
Belangrijk: Installation of this shift kit requires advanced mechanical knowledge and specialized tools. If you are not confident in your abilities, it is recommended to seek professional assistance.
- Voorbereiding: Ensure the vehicle is safely lifted and supported. Drain the transmission fluid and remove the transmission pan and valve body according to the vehicle manufacturer's service manual.
- Valve Body Disassembly: Carefully disassemble the valve body, keeping all components organized. Refer to the detailed diagrams provided with your specific TRANSGO kit for component identification and placement.
- Vervanging van componenten: Replace the specified valves, springs, and seals with the new TRANSGO components. Pay close attention to the orientation and placement of each part. The kit addresses common issues such as "Pump Align Reducer Seal & Bushing Failure."
- Bandaanpassing: This is a critical step. Locate the two bands that require adjustment. Tighten the lock nuts until you feel resistance, then back them out exactly two turns. Relock the nuts to secure the adjustment. This accounts for wear in the band over time and contributes to smoother shifts.
- Valve Body Reassembly: Reassemble the valve body, ensuring all components are correctly seated and torqued to specifications.
- Installation into Transmission: Reinstall the valve body into the transmission, followed by a new transmission filter and the transmission pan.
- Vloeistof bijvullen: Properly top off the transmission with the recommended Mercon V fluid. Ensure the fluid level is correct according to the vehicle manufacturer's guidelines. It is advisable to have extra fluid on hand to avoid delays.
Note: Allow an entire day for the installation process to avoid rushing and potential errors.
Operationele overwegingen
After installation, the transmission should exhibit improved shifting characteristics and address previous issues such as P0741 (lockup complaint) and P0732, P0733, P0735 codes. The vehicle should experience smoother and more responsive gear changes.
- Initial Test Drive: Perform a cautious test drive to ensure proper operation. Pay attention to shift points and overall transmission behavior.
- Fluid Level Check: Recheck the transmission fluid level after the test drive and top off if necessary.
Onderhoud
Regular transmission maintenance, including fluid and filter changes, is crucial for the longevity of your transmission and the continued performance of the TRANSGO Shift Kit. Follow your vehicle manufacturer's recommended service intervals.

Probleemoplossing
| Probleem | Mogelijke oorzaak | Oplossing |
|---|---|---|
| P0741 Code (Lockup Complaint) | Stuck or worn lockup valve, inadequate fluid pressure. | The TRANSGO kit is designed to address this. Re-verify correct installation of the new lockup valve and EPC relief assemblies. Ensure proper band adjustment. |
| "Won't move cold" noise | Issues with pump valve assembly or fluid circulation. | The kit includes a new pump valve assembly. Confirm correct installation and proper fluid levels. |
| Rough or delayed shifting | Incorrect band adjustment, low fluid, or incorrect component installation. | Check transmission fluid level. Re-verify band adjustments (two turns out from resistance). Review installation steps for any missed details. |
| Codes P0732, P0733, P0735 | Gear ratio errors, often related to internal transmission issues. | The kit aims to improve internal hydraulic integrity. If codes persist, further diagnostic by a professional is recommended. |
