I have a 2003 Envoy Xl with the deep pan, and I'm asking here to see anyone knows if I have the correct part number(s) for the deep transmission pan with the drain plug?
The pan I'm looking to order is through RockAuto, and the Dorman part numbers I have are: 24229658 and 24240207. The description doesn't say if it's for a deep pan or not. I could call, but I've talked to them once before (for a different vehicle) and still got very different exhaust parts delivered.
Anyhoo, the plan is install it once the weather starts getting warmer, then to flush and replace the trans fluid once per year thereafter. The pan was removed and a new filter was installed in November of 2012, but it wasn't a "complete" flush...it was only a pan drop/drain/install/refill. I'd like to keep doing a partial drain & fill with the drain plug a few more times to try and get new fluid throughout the system. Also, when I'm installing the new pan (with drain spout), I'm going to install another new trans filter -just because...
Called two local dealerships last year for a quote on a complete flush, and both quotes were over $300 without a new filter. I was looking at prices around $360 with a new filter.
Needless to say...I'd rather just do it myself and install a new pan & filter while I'm under there. Dealerships near me are a ripoff!!
