later i will do the forward flush

I am beginning to wonder if that was Jeep dealer thing, I had the same on mine, replaced with cork and has been good since, might be time to do a good clean of it too.

Mine only had 110,000km when i bought it last year, but i suspect a dealership upsold a customer at around 80,000km for a tranny filter but did a dodgy silicone gasket to seal it all up.

job completed, took 13 litres to completely flush the transmission until i was satisfied it was clean. Happy with the result of the pan even though you won't see it but i had some 2k for my jeep that would have gone off if i didn't use it.

CCKen!
By Jove man, what made you decide to look at this side of the water!
Your first post ever on AJOR and it starts we my name, lol.

Don't worry mate, in the written text that goes with that pic, like you could have seen on CF, you are mentioned as " pic courtesy of CCKen".
You know me a little by now, I would never take credit for those things. How could I. Over time with some of the pics I post, I have forgotten who I got them from. But let's face it, we share the good things we learn or get via the forum with others.

But hey, if you insist and since I remember you providing this pic: pic is courtesy of CCKen people, let it be said.

Maybe you could dig me up a nice pic of a RHD set-up, I lost it somewhere in my database

by the way the rear cooler line feeds straight into the pan sump
