Thanks for this. Same transmission in my Chrysler/Dodge neons. 4 different years, all the same transmissions and engines. Got some fun projects ahead with these rebuilds. 😁👍
I overhauled my 41TE 1997 DGC, (with 270K km, I'm the 2nd maybe 3rd owner, and my first car in Canada and no budget for shop overhaul). It has downshift bump when bought it and after a year of careful use and maintenance (tranny & engine change oil), it went to "limp mode". It will not shift to 2nd or 3rd but has the reverse. The code (I can't remember the #) says "internal mechanical issue". I replaced all plates, clutches, rings, 2 speed sensors, UD clutch, checked/cleaned/flushed the solenoid body, torque converter, pump, new ATF+4 but re-use the old solenoid pack. Before that I tested this SP and the ohms are good within specs. The reason is I can still replace it later if the downshift bumps persist. After the overhaul, all codes were gone but the bump is still there, just like the tranny was before the limp-mode. After running some +300km., I replaced the SP with new Wagner. The van works well smoothly during road test but reverts to its old bumps today just after some 50 km. What else should I need to check/do to remove the bumps, there's no code. I know that if I these bumps continue, it will to totally erase the spline of the sun and planetary gear assembly. I found out this was the reason why the tranny went on "limp-mode", because the assembly was no more mechanically connected and not driving the shaft due to total loss of spline. I replaced this assembly in the overhaul and did the air clutches test with good results. I have not yet tried the re-learn by scanner. Please help. I love this van. Thank you for reading and advise.
You know, most of those special tools can be made at the Dollar tree or your Hardware store. I want to do a stick shift in my Van, and an engine swap to a TUrbo car, but I think that might have to wait. Still. Want to try it soon!

Good job buddy. You are braver than me for sure! 🤙

Bud try adding more fluid, i had same problem with this transmission I added more oil and now its back to normal.
Would like to have seen you do the tear down and show what’s wrong with it.
Thanks bro for making these videos. I am doing this right now. New subscriber
Thanks for the sub!
Jeesus, how you can do anything in that mess??

I liked this series, but what happened to the tear down?
I didnt make it, I have one transmission will do it soon thanks for watching
Thanks for the effort but the camera work makes this unwatchable
Sorry to hear that
