Never had a car with a 4T40 but did have two with the 4T60. My '99 Grand Am had a 4 cylinder but was still given the larger, stronger 4T60. Olds did the same with the 5th gen Cutlass, though mine had the V6. The 4T60 was only used on Chevy cars when they had a 6 cylinder.
Hmm, so Olds eventually stooped that low. They only used the 4T60E on the 5th gen Cutlass, regardless of the motor. Also, my '99 Grand Am had the 4T60E in spite of being a 4 banger. That car is still running but I don't own it anymore. I rebuilt the motor in the kitchen of my apartment after it spun a rod in 2010. Ground it for an 0.010" over bearing by hand. Amazing what you can do with a lot of patience and little money. It isn't like it was in the old days where you could go to the local shop and give the guy 5 bucks to let you use the lathe. Liability and such. The 4T60 will pretty much last forever if you treat it right.
Just make sure you keep the fluid clean along with replacing the filter everytime you decide to change the fluid, also recommend synthetic transmission fluid (dexron 6) to avoid any sort of overheating. Mine shifts way smoother with dexron 6. Edit: Also if the fluid is dirty, try not to change it since it could slip with new fluid.
My 1996 car is equipped with this transmission and still runs like factory condition ❤

4t40e on my 04' Olds Alero thanks for not including a dipstick and making it a pain in the ass to service

I'm sure more than a few factory trained techs from back in the day referred to it as the 'STD'.
Music is so 80's 90"s! Lol
Intro was obviously from the '80s, with content updated for the '95 model year
Where can I buy the tools for this transmission?
Check EBay

Are these very good or durable?

I have almost 200k on my cavalier.
@@Kjllo1216 and what to do if it slips after a fluid change? Do I have to change the entire transmission?
@@josepantoja9421 Try to put that old fluid back in. If you cant its best to say goodbye to the tranny.
@@Kjllo1216 so what? Just don't change it at all if it's dirty?
орысшасы жокпа?
No I do not
