1 General Information
This Section describes the disassembly and reassembly procedures of the four spee d 4L65E hydra-matic automatic
transmission as well as the associated components, with the transmission removed from the vehicle.
1.1 Service Information
Throughout the service operations within this
Section, when handling retaining clips, using
compressed air o r cleaning flu ids, w ear safety
equipment to avoid personal injury.
Refer to Section 7D1 Automatic Transmission – 4L65E – General Informat ion for the following:
information relating to mechanical and electrical operations,
abbreviations, transmission specificati ons, special tools and torque wrench specifications,
servicing, cleaning and inspe c tion procedure recommendations.
It is essential to read and understand the General Information, Warnings, Cautions and Service Notes contained in that
same Section, before any service operation is performed on the four speed 4L65E hydra-matic automatic transmission or
any associated components.
Failure to comply with the procedur es and service notes can affect the reliable and efficient operation of this automatic
transmission.

15–DEC–2005 Page 7D5–6
1.2 General Description
The four speed 4L65E hydra- matic automatic transmission, although similar to the 4L60E automatic tra nsmissio n, has
been up-graded to cater for high torque and load demands.
The four speed 4L65E hydra- matic automatic transmission features the following:
The input carrier is up-grade d to a five pinion gear construction.
The reaction carrier is up-graded to a five pi nion gear construction.
The sun reaction shell thrust washer is up-graded to a thru st needle bearing construction.
An oil deflector is added for the five pinion re action carrier.
The output shaft sleeve and output shaft seal are uni que to cater for the five pinion carrier.
The input housing and sh aft assembly is unique to cater for high torque and load demands.
The O-ring seal for the input shaft is unique.
The quantity of composition pl ates and st eel plates for the 3-4 clutch plate assembly, has been increased to seven
and six respectively.
A new selective backing plate for the 3-4 clutch assembly, has been introduced to cater for the increased qua ntity
of plates within the 3-4 clutch plate assembly.
The control valve body gaskets and spacer plate are unique and h ave identification marking VB, CA and IPU
respectively.
For MY06 vehicles an Input Speed Sensor (ISS) has bee n fitted
The additional pini on gear spreads torque lo ads around to reduce the load supporte d by each gear, in both compression
and bending. The 3-4 clutch has now seven friction plates, this cha ng e results in higher shift energy capacity. A heavy
duty needle bearing is now used for the interface between the reaction shaft and the reacti on sun gear and shell to
withstand increased loads.

15–DEC–2005 Page 7D5–7
1.3 Rebuilding Tips
The use of air powered tools to disassemble or reassemble this transmission is not recommended. Apa rt from the fact
that thread stripping is more likely when inc orrect torque values are applied to fasteners, component parts can be
distorted to the point where malfunctions will occur.
Teflon Sealing Rings
If any sealing rings are damaged, cut or do not rotate freely in their groove, check if the ring groove has no trapped
debris, is not burred or damaged in such a wa y that it would cause earl y failure of a replacement ring.
Thrust Washer Surfa ces
On inspection, thrust washer and thrust bear ing surfaces may appear to be polished at points of contact. This is a normal
condition and should not be considered as damage requirin g replacement.

Reverse Input Clutch Air Check
Prior to conducting this test, note the
following:
Even though air pressure will be lost
through the bleed hole in the piston
during this process, a ssemble the re verse
input clutch completely.
If tested with only the piston and return
spring assembly secured with a retaining
ring, the piston may over-stroke and
dislodge the snap ring and/or the piston
seals. In either case, there is a safety risk
that must be avoided.
1 Mount the reverse input clutch housing
assembly (605) and thrust washer (601), onto the
inverted oil pump assembly (4), as shown.
2 Apply air pressure in bursts to the oil pum p housing
passage (#4) and observe the movement of the clutch
piston and the clutch pack.

NOTE
The torque converter clutch PWM solenoid (396)
is removed prior to the TCC solenoid, during the
removal of the control valve body from the
transmission.
Clean and Inspect
Control Valve Body
1 Clean all valves, springs, bushes an d the control valve body in clea n solvent and dry with compressed air.
Too much lapping of a valve will create
excessive clearances, increasing the risk of
valve malfunction.
2 If it is necessary to clean a valve, micro fine lapp ing compound with a 900 grit or finer may be used. T he use of a
honing stone, fine sandpaper or crocus cloth is not recommended for servicing stuck valves. All valve lands have
sharply machined corners, necessary for keeping the bore clean. If these corners are rounded, foreign material c an
wedge between the valve and its bore, causing the valve to stick.
3 Inspect all valves, plugs and sleeve for scoring, scratches or nicks, replace as required.
4 Inspect all springs for damaged or distorte d coils, replace as required.
5 Inspect valve body casting for porosity, cracks, damaged machined surfaces, blocked or partially blocked passages
and scored or damaged v alve train bores, replace as requir ed.
Spacer Plate Evaluation
During inspection of the spacer plate (1), it is acceptable for
some check ball peening to be evident at the seven
locations (2), as shown.
Perform the two following procedures to establish the
serviceability of the spacer plate.
Figure 7D5 – 173
7D5 Automatic Transmission – 4L65E – Unit Repair Page 7D5–95
15–DEC–2005 Page 7D5–95
Procedure 1
The spacer plate (48) must be inspected thoroughly for
raised material on the opposite side of all check ball (61)
locations. If the material on the opposite side is raised (A),
the peening is considere d to be too severe and the spacer
plate must be replaced.
Figure 7D5 – 174
Procedure 2
To verify if a check ball location has peened evenly and the
check ball is seating correctly, proceed as follows:
a place the check ball (61) at its location on the spacer
plate (48).
b Use a torch (A) to shine a beam of light on the
opposite side and check for light between the spacer
plate and the check ball.
c No light should be visible, as indicated at (X). If it is, as
indicated by (Y), the spacer plate must be replaced.
d Perform this check for all check ball locations on the
spacer plate.
