Subaru 4AT Highlights

This Transmission is Phase 2 Version 1. I go through the trans and Valve body in this video also show what the problem was for it to be running away in 3rd sometimes. I also show locations of 2 anti rattle clips. Shop is very busy and I could not do a teardown video. Off to work for a while, thanks for watching.

Thanks for taking time from your day to share your knowledge.

Nice job on this unit as always Gary! I preferred this unit in the Subaru cars over the CVT all the new ones have. Nice to see one taken apart. Cheers!

Thanks for the analysis on this one Gary. This transmission appears to be much better than the CVT job that Subaru also uses. Buick Dynaflow was even better than CVT.
Glad to hear that you are staying busy this winter ( if you want to call this winter ).
TakeCare,
Bill

Woah, the perfect video I needed! Was reading through the ATSG book and getting ready to tear one down. Awesome clip of the anti-rattle springs! Any tips for installing the sprag?

I really need to pay you. I got mine apart with zero trouble after seeing that the special tools for this thing are running as high as $800. Found the piece that holds the parking pall lever back in the oil pan, lol. The inverted U shaped part at about 21:11 below the spring that's part of the case. Got a used case from eBay but that's probably not the issue. It was slipping on up and down shifts and would flash the temp light. Just waiting on bearings and bushings to come in before I break open the drums. I have two of these cars and I paid nothing for them so I figured it was time to do the only thing I've never done to a car before. I was always scared of transmissions.

Gary, a question. At 6;14 on the low clutches, it appears that you take the dished ring/ plate in one orientation to the clutches and put it back in in the opposite orientation. I am asking because I got confused on my rebuild and cannot find an illustration anywhere on the internet or my service manual. That is why I am paying so much attention to it. Can you tell me which is correct and what the final clearance should be ? Swapping the direction seems to make a large change in clearance. You videos are great !

Thanks for the video, do you ever reuse separator plates with bonded gaskets if they look ok?

[calholli]

You should get a 'Time lapse" camera set up... So in times when you have to hurry-- just let that run in the background-- and we can still get that tear down, more or less. It would really grow your channel, viewers wise also. Just saying.

Boa tarde amigo, sou do Brasil e estou com um câmbio do subaru, porém ele é o 5eat por acaso vc teria o manual de montagem dele? Eu montei e teve alguma coisa errada que eu fiz, não acho o manual então deve ter um detalhe que errei na hora de montar

Hey Gary nice video, but what kind of camera are you using? It’s either low resolution, or you need to clean the lens with alcohol (with a microfiber cloth) before recording, which should give you clearer video

Looks like the old Jatco used in the Mitsubishi's with the 2-3 shift flare issue.

The tube at 14:09 is single use. Should replace it when you take it out. Running about $9 at the dealer right now.

Would love to see Subaru CVT when you get a chance to work on

[apachelives]

From the color of the fluid looks like it was neglected, original fluid never changed?

[SUBARULT]

what the difference between brown clutch, some black and completely black clutch?
