Here's a question to all who know the 4L80.. This unit is in a 1996 "short bus" that now sees life as a college ball game with the friends bus..
Owner is complaining of a leak - inspection looked like it was leaking from the front seal area.. pulled the trans pan beforehand to drain and found a fair bit of metal in the pan. Dropped the trans and pulled the converter and found all this loveliness. There is a pretty good step (by feel) from the lower (in the pic)to the upper marks. It's also not even all the way around and neither is the "step" Also worth noting is that I think it's been "rebuilt" at one point.. cleaning tool marks on the pan, paint on the pan (not the case) and a date on the converter of 2/6/15
What in the name tarnation is going on here? I realize this thing needs more attention than I can give, but would like to be able to talk to the customer about it and fill him in
